We have a very exciting opportunity for a team manager to lead the mental health well being unit, which is part of our services in HMP Hull. The Wellbeing Unit is the regional enhanced mental health unit for Yorkshire prisons. It aims to treat patients with acute mental illness to prevent the need for a hospital transfer.

The Team manager will work in partnership with other healthcare providers, HMPPS and internal and external Health and Justice services within the region. They will have excellent skills in communication, engagement and collaborative working and have experience of working in mental health services, preferably with knowledge of the criminal justice system.

The Team Manager will provide operational management of the Mental Health well-being unit and team, including accountability for ensuring the highest professional standards and attitudes towards the care of patients are maintained and delivered at all times in accordance with evidence-based practice. They will be pivotal in developing this service.

The successful candidate should be competent and confident with extensive experience working in Mental Health Services.

The post holder will liaise closely with their peer group of team managers in the NE and Yorkshire Prisons, which have services provided by Tees, Esk and Wear Valleys NHS Foundation Trust.
