We have two secondments within our team to tutor roles within the EP training course at Southampton University.
Wellbeing, person-centredness and co-production are central priorities, both within the EPS team and across BCP Council. In addition to benefitting from regular opportunities for connection, collaboration, support and supervision (both individually and as part of a peer group), our team enjoy excellent and dedicated administrative support, a laptop and smartphone, and access to a wide set of tools, resources and CPD opportunities. BCP offers flexible working arrangements and hybrid virtual working options for remote working where practical. Schools can be matched to provide optimal efficiency for travel and there is accessible reduced-price city-centre parking.
You may be able to access a significant relocation package of up to £8,000. As a team we prioritise our well-being and regularly arrange social events such as BBQs on the beach, bowling and karaoke.
As a coastal unitary authority, we enjoy the best of a modern urban area as well as some of Europe’s best beaches, stunning countryside and close proximity to the New Forest.
We would welcome applications from professionally qualified, HCPC registered educational psychologists and from those who will be in their 2nd or 3rd year of training by September 2025 on an accredited educational psychology doctoral course - who will be eligible for HCPC registration once qualified. Those in other circumstances, perhaps returning to the profession or interested in working part time will also be considered.
