Description

Job Introduction
We are currently recruiting for exciting opportunities to join Turning Point and be part of our highly successful and innovative Talking Therapies service.

Total Wellbeing Luton is an integrated Talking Therapies service combining healthy lifestyles and emotional health programmes provided in partnership with Active Luton and we are looking for a qualified PWP to join the team.

The service in Luton provides person-centered, holistic and accessible wellbeing services which are flexible and creative, easy to access and navigate and responsive to the needs of local people. The service contributes to tackling inequalities in health through promoting and supporting people to develop healthier behaviours and lifestyles in the context of their own local communities.

As well as supporting the community with improving their physical and emotional heath, we also prioritise our staff wellbeing. We're based at Active Luton gyms and community centres, which all staff can access and use freely.

We offer regular masterclasses to upskill our therapists and support their career development as well as opportunities to access additional modality training.

This is a hybrid role and can involve a combination of service based and home working, with a minimum of 2-3 days in the office.

We also offer a £1,200 joining bonus.

Role Responsibility
Whether you are an experienced PWP or you are newly qualified, you will be joining Total Wellbeing Luton which is a highly regarded and experienced national provider of IAPT service on behalf of the NHS. As a key member of the team, you will be working closely with our clinical team to maintain our high standard and help us to develop this further.

As a PWP, you'll be managing your own caseload providing evidence based treatments via one to one and group settings. We offer a high standard of in house clinical supervision and training with BABCP accredited supervisors.

Alongside managing your own caseload, PWPs also deliver psychoeducation workshops and webinars to local businesses, organisations and community groups.

The Ideal Candidate
You need NHS Talking Therapies qualification as a Psychological Wellbeing Practitioner (unless demonstrably exempt through UCL assessment of competence scheme) and Registration as a Psychological Wellbeing Practitioner with either BABCP or BPS.

As well as being a qualified PWP, you will need outstanding written and telephone communication skills as well as the ability to work effectively as part of a team.

The service operates across a variety of days and hours to include Saturdays and evening work, therefore we offer flexible working hours. We pay incentivised rates of pay for weekend working and additional hours.

About us
As a leading health and social care provider with more than 300 locations across England, we take real pride in the services we offer.

We run all of our services on a not-for-profit basis; instead, we invest every penny back into our services and people.

What Benefits Will I Receive?
You will receive a one-off £1,200 joining bonus - T&C's apply.
You will get 31 days' paid holiday a year, increasing with each year of service up to 33 days.
