Description
Via has an exciting opportunity for a fixed-term contract to cover maternity leave, for someone whose passion is leading and growing a team of psychological therapists across Via’s community services.
This well supported post is ideal for an experienced HCPC registered practitioner psychologist seeking to grow in a leadership position. The post consists of 3 days working for our central clinical team, which can be delivered remotely.
Responsibilities as part of the central clinical team include:
- overseeing supervision and development of Via’s psychological professionals
- enhancing the psychosocial components of Via’s Core model
- ensuring policies and processes are psychologically informed
- leading on quality assurance of our psychology offering.
One day is based in our Greenwich clinic. Within the Greenwich service, responsibilities include overseeing supervision and development of the local team of psychological professionals, facilitating improvements in how we support those with co-occurring difficulties with substance use and mental health (in collaboration with Oxleas NHS Foundation Trust), and holding a small caseload.
Please note, that we will consider splitting these responsibilities for candidates who are interested only in the aspects of the role that can be delivered remotely.
While Via is a drug and alcohol service provider, we recognise that practitioner psychologists can develop competencies in supporting people with problematic substance use in a range of other services, and welcome applications from diverse clinical backgrounds.
