Community Team Manager inKing's Lynn inKing's Lynn PUBLISHED WED 6 NOV 2024

My name's Holly Stephens and I am the Service Manager for the CMHT in West Norfolk.

In our service we support working age adults who are experiencing moderate to severe mental health difficulties. We have creative and skilled staff who provide the support that is needed - and they are motivated to make a real difference to those with mental health difficulties, their families and carers.

I'm excited to recruit a new Community Team Manager in our West Norfolk Adult CMHT. This is a vital role which provides direction and support to our practitioners, with opportunities to creatively think about how to improve our work.

We're looking for an individual who can lead and inspire others - within a context of change, and sometimes challenge.

As an employer, I and Norfolk and Suffolk Foundation Trust are particularly committed to enabling our staff to do the very best they can through support, supervision and training, as well as opportunities for progression. We are confident, therefore, that the right candidate will have a real chance to make a positive impact to the lives of people in West Norfolk.

When you join us, you'll be working alongside the local leadership team, Principal Clinical Psychologist, Consultant Psychiatrists and Community Team Manager colleagues across the service, and will manage a team who provides mental health and psychologically informed services for adults in our communities.

This is an exciting time of transformation of mental health services in our region; creating opportunities to recognise and consolidate what services are doing well, whilst driving creativity to radically change service delivery. We're looking for a clinically-informed leader who can help drive positive changes.

You'll be compassionate, approachable and person centred whilst supporting with the day to day delivery of our service; providing supervision to staff, giving structure and direction to how the service functions, and giving attention to the quality of our support to adults in West Norfolk.
