We have an excellent opportunity in our Basildon and Brentwood NHS IAPT service for a Senior Employment Advisor.
This is a key role in the service and combines a caseload with the management, motivation and development of a team of Employment Advisors focused on providing support and advice to our service users to help them retain, regain or return to employment. You will work closely with mental health clinicians and develop good working partnerships with a variety of stakeholders including employers, job centres, trade unions and employment agencies.
