Overview
The Forensic Outreach Liaison Service is dedicated to supporting individuals with complex needs who have engaged in offending behaviour, helping them build hopeful, meaningful lives through recovery-focused mental health interventions. If you are passionate about making a real difference, you'll find a rewarding opportunity here to foster resilience, promote recovery, and support lasting positive change.
As part of our expanding multi-disciplinary therapies team, you will work collaboratively to deliver evidence-based therapies that enable individuals to overcome challenges, manage their mental health, and reintegrate successfully into the community. Your expertise will help empower recovery, reduce reoffending, and enhance wellbeing.
If you believe in recovery as a powerful journey toward transformation and want to be part of a dedicated team that supports positive futures, we want to hear from you.
