Groundwork London is a community charity with a green heart that has been at the forefront of social and environmental regeneration in London for over 20 years. Each year we deliver hundreds of innovative environmental and social action projects across the capital. Our projects change places and lives for the better in some of London’s most deprived and disadvantaged neighbourhoods. This includes working with communities to make their neighbourhoods greener and more resilient to climate change, supporting long-term unemployed individuals to find work, helping young people get back into education and training, and advising residents how to save money on their energy and water needs
The Nest is Groundwork London’s mental wellbeing support service for young people aged 11 – 25 and living in the London Borough of Southwark. Since launching as a remote service in the May of 2020, right in the middle of the Covid-19 Pandemic, The Nest has gone from strength to strength and we are looking for passionate, experienced, skilled and driven individuals to join the team to support us as we expand in 2021.
You will have the relevant experience and accreditation to provide wellbeing support for children and young people through the delivery of high-quality, evidence-based interventions in one-to-one and group formats for service users with a range of needs.
While your focus will be the delivery of therapeutic interventions for your own caseload, you will also be responsible for providing training relating to different aspects of service delivery to other members of your team and representing The Nest at clinical and referral review meetings with other services across Southwark.
Most important of all will be your approach: we’re an exciting, fast paced and ever growing service at the forefront of early intervention mental health support for young people in Southwark, so we’re looking for people with the ambition and commitment to match our own.
Interview Date: 3rd September 2021 (interviews will be conducted remotely)
