Required to help deliver an expanding contract
Berkshire Healthcare has won extra funding to expand its successful Individual Placement and Support (IPS) Service. Working within the Early Intervention in Psychosis (EIP) team or the Community Mental Health Teams (CMHT) across Berkshire, alongside clinical colleagues you will be expected to ‘champion the employment agenda’, instilling the belief that people with mental health needs want to work and with the right support can work; and therefore generating referrals to the service.
We require Employment Specialists that are enthusiastic and highly motivated to help people with mental health needs access employment opportunities. The role will involve helping people to decide on their employment goals including providing support with job searching, applications, interview skills and after they have found work.
If you currently work or have experience in health or social care, recruitment, employment or education services or if you have transferable skills to enable people find / retain employment; this is an excellent opportunity to join our team of Employment Specialists.
If you would like to find out more about the role or the IPS service, please contact Nathalie Zacharias on 07717 544480
