Job Summary
This is an exciting opportunity to join our vibrant, caring and innovative Islington CAMHS Therapies Team (CTT). CTT is a multi-disciplinary team which addresses the needs of children and young people (CYP) with moderate to severe/complex mental health presentations, from both neurodiverse and neurotypical populations, and from a diverse range of cultures and communities. We offer a range of interventions informed by a number of therapeutic models, including systemic family therapy, CBT, child and adolescent psychodynamic psychotherapy therapy and psychiatry.
With the ongoing increase numbers of CYP who need our support, the referrals to our service have increased. We have also introduced a number of creative new ways of offering therapeutic support to CYP and need to make sure our expanding service has systems in place to manage the increased caseload and to evaluate the innovative changes we are making.
With this in mind, we are introducing a new role of Pathway Co-ordinator within the team. This role is a 1-year fixed term opportunity (or possible secondment) with the possibility of further extension into a permanent role.
We are keen to encourage applications from those who represent our local community and the population we are working with.

Alongside the CTT mangers, the post holder will be responsible for creating new systems to improve efficiency across the care pathways and manage data and reports summarising activity.
The post holder will hold direct line management responsibility for the Band 4 CTT administrator who supports the team with routine administrative tasks such as sending appointment letters, reports etc.. The post holder will also be responsible for providing administration support to the team as required.
The post holder should be a creative and clear thinker, with administrative experience, and with excellent skills with technology to help us to put in place effective systems to manage our large caseload and to monitor through put and the quality of the service we provide. The post holder should have the confidence to provide feedback to the existing administration team and mangers, and to suggest new ideas for improving them.
