Exciting Opportunity in Forensic Neurodevelopmental Services
We are pleased to offer an exciting full-time position that spans two closely integrated services: the Oxleas Forensic Intellectual and Neurodevelopmental Disability (FIND) Community Team and the inpatient forensic service at the Bracton Centre. This role is equally divided between the two services, with 18.75 hours per week dedicated to each.
About The FIND Community Team
The Oxleas FIND Team plays a pivotal role in supporting individuals transitioning from inpatient forensic settings back into the community.
The team delivers specialist assessment, treatment, and consultation to support the safe and clinically appropriate reintegration of individuals with complex needs.. The primary aim is to ensure a well-coordinated, person-centred pathway from secure care to community living.
About The Bracton Centre Inpatient Forensic Service
Located in Kent, the Bracton Centre offers a comprehensive range of specialist forensic mental health services for adults aged 18–65. The service provides high-quality, multidisciplinary care to individuals with significant mental health needs within a secure environment.
This dual-service role offers a rich opportunity to contribute to both community-based and inpatient forensic mental health services, while also being part of a forward-thinking partnership driving innovation in mental health care across South London.
In this role, the postholder will provide specialist assessment, intervention, and consultation for individuals with intellectual and/or neurodevelopmental disabilities who are involved in the criminal justice system or present with forensic risk. These individuals may present with complex communication needs, co-occurring mental health difficulties, and challenging behaviours that require tailored and collaborative therapeutic input.
The community arm of the role, within the Oxleas FIND team, involves working proactively with multi-disciplinary colleagues to support service users in the least restrictive environments possible, with a focus on risk reduction, communication accessibility, and support for meaningful engagement in community life. The inpatient component at Bracton Centre involves supporting individuals through their rehabilitation and recovery pathways, contributing to risk assessments, care planning, and discharge preparations.
Oxleas offers a wide range of NHS healthcare services to people in community and secure environment settings. Our services include community health care such as district nursing and speech and language therapy, care for people with learning disabilities and mental health care such as psychiatry, nursing and therapies. Our multidisciplinary teams look after people of all ages and we work in close partnership with other parts of the NHS, local councils and the voluntary sector and through our new provider collaboratives. Our 4,300 members of staff work in many different settings including hospitals, clinics, prisons, secure hospitals, children’s centres, schools and people’s homes.
We have over 125 sites in a variety of locations in the South of England. In London we operate within the Boroughs of Bexley, Bromley Greenwich and into Kent. We manage hospital sites including Queen Mary’s Hospital, Sidcup and Memorial Hospital, Woolwich, as well as the Bracton Centre, our medium secure unit for people with mental health needs. We are the largest NHS provider of prison health services providing healthcare to prisons within Devon, Dorset, Bristol, Wiltshire and Gloucestershire, Kent and South London. We are proud of the care we provide and our people.
