We believe that children are often best helped in the context of their families and we work closely with many diverse kinds of families in fulfilling their potential.
The post holder would be joining a thriving psychological service which plays a key role in the Family Intervention Team through leading all clinical practice delivered to families. Alongside being a member of the Family Intervention Team, the post holder would also belong to the ABUHB Child Psychology and Therapies Service in which there is a range of excellent services for children, families and fellow professionals.

The role involves developing the co-production activities of our service and raising the voice of children and families.
The post is available as a bands 7 - 8A development post or as an 8A post dependent upon experience. The post is offered fixed term until March 2026 due to fixed term funding at present.
