We value diversity and aim to have diverse workforce that reflects the community and our service users, in line with our vision, values and inclusion commitments. We encourage applications from all sections of the community.

The Postgraduate Diploma in Children and Young People’s Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (CYP IAPT) is a service transformation programme that aims to improve Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) and develop the workforce by recruiting professionals for core and specific skills training.

We are recruiting up to six Senior Practice Tutors across all our taught modalities for the 2024 cohort of students in the Postgraduate Diploma in CYP IAPT Therapy. The post-holders will facilitate the delivery of reflective practice tutor groups to enable trainees to develop skills in delivering interventions based on the modality (CBT, IPT-A, Under Fives or ASC/LD). The post-holders will contribute to teaching sessions, and undertake marking, personal tutoring and make other similar contributions to support the delivery of the programme and promote the best student experience.

The successful candidates will be mental health professionals with specific and significant clinical knowledge and experience of working with children, young people and families within CAMHS or similar settings.
