Lead Practitioner, Central Neighbourhood Mental Health Team at Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust
The Neighbourhood Mental Health Team (NMHT) is a lively multi-disciplinary community‑based team. We provide specialist assessment, treatment and care to working‑age adults with severe mental illness, based at Brighton General Hospital.
We are looking for a Registered Mental Health Nurse, Occupational Therapist or Social Worker with existing experience and knowledge of supporting adults with complex mental health conditions.
This is an exciting time for community mental health services as we transform to a new, integrated, neighbourhood model with our primary care and voluntary sector partners. We seek innovative practitioners who can embrace the new model and put it into practice.
The post offers the Trust's £2,000 Golden Hello or Relocation Incentive for Band 6 Nurses & Practitioners (pro‑rata and subject to terms and conditions; see attached Protocol Document for full details).
The successful candidate will work within a service that prides itself on its commitment and provision of high‑quality care. The role is challenging and very busy, but also very rewarding.
A passion for working with people to support individual recovery goals and to collaborate with service users, their carers, colleagues within the third sector, GPs and the wider mental health service within the Trust is essential.
We welcome applications from practitioners who are highly motivated, resilient, enthusiastic, creative, flexible and resourceful.
You will receive high‑quality supervision, support and training to further develop your skills and experience in a community mental‑health setting.
The service operates Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm. We understand the importance of work/life balance and welcome discussions around flexible working arrangements as required.
Brighton and Hove is a vibrant and exciting place to live and work, offering lively city life with easy access to the South Downs National Park.
