We are recruiting for Education Mental Health Practitioners to join our Mental Health Support Teams across Bristol, North Somerset, and South Gloucestershire. Vacancies are available in each of these locations.
Please note we are looking for qualified Education Mental Health Practitioners, therefore, we can only accept candidates that have completed a Education Mental Health Practitioner course.
The post-holders will be part of the Mental Health Support Team (MHST).

Successful candidates will work closely with professionals, children and young people, families and the wider school community to deliver engaging Whole School Approach activities. They will use their training, skills and experience to influence the whole school culture in relation to mental health and wellbeing.
Ongoing CPD and service experience will equip the post holders with the necessary knowledge, attitude and capabilities to ensure that children and young people can access the right support at the right time.
We are committed to overcoming barriers to access for children, young people, and families seeking support, and upholding anti-oppressive practice in our work and teams.

A Willingness to Work with Difference
At OTR, whatever your role or professional background, you will be expected to work in a way that is anti-oppressive and inclusive. A key focus for OTR is to develop an organisation that is inclusive for all but we do not claim to be experts in this. We are committed to continuous learning and improvement in these areas and invite you to join us on this journey.
OTR recognises the benefits to individual practice and organisational credibility of having a diverse community of staff and volunteers and to this end is continually working towards building and maintaining an environment which values and pursues diversity accordingly.
We recognise that tackling systemic inequality, prejudice, racism and oppressive practice requires each of us to actively engage, self-examine and make changes where necessary, in order to improve access and equitable experience for all in society and all of those who come through our doors at OTR.
