Those Huge Small Victories

Our clinicians are fulfilled by the idea of affecting even the smallest positive changes in our young people, so we celebrate the little things.

Get out what you put in

Are you ready to make a real impact on the lives of children and young people?

Reporting directly to the Clinical Director you will be one of seven Clinical Regional Directors leading our multidisciplinary teams of 220+ Senior & Specialist clinicians to ensure the delivery of our integrated, evidence based and cutting edge therapeutic practice model.

You will work collaboratively with the Regional Directors for Education and Care to ensure that the whole system and team around the child work together effectively and therapeutically to meet the needs of the children and young people who live and learn with us.

Combining your consultant level clinical skills with your organisational acumen, you'll have the opportunity to innovate, inspire, shape and empower.

The kind of person we’re looking for will:

• Be an accredited specialist, registered with the HCPC or equivalent
• Have significant experience of delivering therapeutic services to children and young people presenting with developmental trauma, neurodevelopmental conditions and complex educational needs
• Need experience of supporting teams around a child or young person to ensure they are being provided with clinically informed living and learning environments and experiences
• Have a reflective, psychologically-focused mind that is able to think systemically about teams, understands organisational dynamics and is able to see the ‘whole’ picture.
• Be a practitioner whose leadership skills have already very much come to the fore as part of a dynamic multidisciplinary team – so you’ll need to demonstrate credibility, communication skills and change management expertise
• Be a confident, engaging and effective, model, guide, leader and trainer
• Be highly organised and ready to take the initiative
• Be committed to ensuring the best outcomes for young people
