Speak to us about how we might be able to accommodate a flexible working arrangement whether that’s job share, part time or another flexible pattern.

If it works for the service, we will do our best to make it work for you.
The successful applicant will be an NHS employee and may therefore have contact with vulnerable service users.

Unless exempt, we encourage and support staff to be vaccinated as this remains the best line of defence against COVID-19.

Peer support is based on the recognition that there is no better person to support the path towards recovery than someone who has walked the same path as that individual.
Have you had a lived experience of perinatal mental ill health and services? Would you like to support other women who are currently experiencing perinatal mental health issues? If so, we would like to hear from you as we have an exciting opportunity to become a perinatal peer support worker in the perinatal mental health team.
The role of Peer Support Worker (PSW) has been developed specifically for those who have lived experience of mental health challenges. Through sharing your wisdom from your own experiences you will inspire hope and belief that recovery is possible in others.
