The Together Forensic Mental Health Practitioner Service has acquired a reputation for dynamic, creative and responsive service delivery. The tasks are not always easy, the circumstances can be at times challenging, but the rewards of a job well done can be very satisfying. We value purpose, energy, trust and application.

We seek to recruit outstanding individuals from all mental health disciplines who are independent thinkers, who can sustain an autonomous approach to their work, but who can also make a contribution to the team and service development. 

Due to an exciting service expansion, there are currently Forensic Mental Health Practitioner vacancies, in the boroughs of Enfield, Camden & Islington, Southwark, Hackney and Ealing, working within court and probation settings.   Salary £28,270 (LW where applicable).  The posts are initially a one year fixed term contract, but with possible extension.

Closing date 19/11/08.  Interviews w/c 01/12/08.
