Clinical Manager

Role Overview

Are you an experienced clinician, with strong leadership skills and an ambition to lead a multidisciplinary team in delivering high-quality, compassionate care? We are looking for a Clinical Manager for our brand-new purpose built 8 beds inpatient CAMHS High Intensity Environment/ PICU unit at Alumhurst Road, Bournemouth. We welcome nurses from all backgrounds, who are looking to build upon their experiences in Mental Health and Learning Disabilities.

As a Clinical Manager you will bring strong clinical leadership and management skills, along with a good understanding of complex mental health, including attachment and trauma issues for children and young people. You will act as a champion for clinical standards and for continuous improvement in the service user experience. You will demonstrate a supportive and empathetic approach to service users and carers, helping to provide high quality care and treatment for patients who have physical, social, psychological and emotional health needs.

You will work within the senior management team to ensure safe, effective care and treatment and be supported in their development with learning opportunities. You will provide day‑to‑day leadership of a clinical team and practitioners and other staff in the multi‑disciplinary team. The role will allow you to contribute to the planning and design of services in line with Trust, locality and government objectives to meet the needs of local people.

We provide in-depth on‑going inductions, invest in personal training programmes and clinical and management supervision. You will have access to some of the leading research programmes in mental health and, whatever your role, there are opportunities to develop skills and clinical practice by being part of ground‑breaking work.

The Clinical Manager role is a part‑time post of 30 hours per week for a 24‑hour service. We would be flexible and welcome part‑time applicants of 12 hours. This can be discussed at interview stage.

Employment in this post requires an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check, which the Trust will cover the cost of. Applicants who subscribe to the DBS update service are able to present a valid DBS certificate instead of requiring a new check.

Applications from candidates that require current Skilled worker sponsorship to work in the UK are unfortunately ineligible to apply for this position.

Any questions, including a ward tour, please contact Rebecca Matoug, Ward Manager.

We believe in equal opportunities, and we celebrate diversity. We are an inclusive workplace where everyone is welcome, everyone can be authentic, and we are all encouraged to be the best version of ourselves.
