You will be a key member of a 24/7 service that supports adults who are in crisis due to a decline in their mental health.

You will work within a small team, providing support using the therapeutic intervention model for the people who utilise the service. You will work with clients to develop and deliver "client led" recovery, which will promote control and maximise independence.

We are seeking someone who has a clear DBS, is available for a quick start at the service, and ideally has knowledge and experience within this field of work in supporting individuals presenting in mental health crisis.

• 09:00am - 17:00pm
• 17:00pm - 23:00pm and a sleep at the service, and the following morning a 07:00am - 09:00am shift (this can sometimes also be followed by a 09:00am -17:00pm shift also).
• 12:00pm - 20:00pm
• 15:00pm - 23:00pm

The rota is currently rolling on a 5 week basis, and therefore individuals will be given shifts based upon this. This will include periods of weekends not in the service, but also a period a 7 days straight in respect of working on some weeks.
