About the Role
We are looking for a thoughtful, grounded psychologist who brings both clinical competence and personal humility to their work. This role is for someone who genuinely places client welfare above all else — a qualified who knows what they know, acknowledges what they don't, and consistently acts within the bounds of their training and ethics.
Qualifications & Experience
- Bachelor's and Master's degree in Psychology from a recognised university
- 5+ years of hands-on clinical or therapeutic experience post-qualification
- RCI registration is a valued advantage
- Demonstrated understanding of documentation, referral processes, and professional record-keeping
Key Responsibilities
- Conduct individual therapy and psychological assessments within the scope of qualifications
- Perform basic risk screenings related to self-harm, suicidal ideation, abuse, neglect, or harm to others
- Recognise when to escalate, consult a supervisor, or refer to a higher level of care
- Uphold informed consent practices; ensure clients understand the nature, scope, and limits of services
- Maintain strict confidentiality in line with professional ethics
- Keep accurate, timely, and professional clinical records
- Observe clear professional boundaries with clients at all times
- Collaborate with colleagues, supervisors, and interdisciplinary teams
- Participate actively in clinical supervision and case consultations
What We Look ForProfessional Ethics & Clinical Judgement
- Strong grounding in confidentiality, professional boundaries, informed consent, and referral ethics
- Ability to identify and respond appropriately to clinical and safeguarding concerns
- Comfort in saying "I don't know" and seeking guidance rather than overstepping
Self-Awareness & Accountability
- High degree of self-awareness and personal integrity
- Accountability for actions and outcomes; willingness to acknowledge mistakes and learn from them
- Genuine openness to feedback and supervision, without defensiveness
Interpersonal & Relational Qualities
- Empathy and genuine compassion for clients across diverse backgrounds
- Cultural sensitivity and non-judgmental care
- Reliable, consistent, and collaborative — someone colleagues can count on
- Client welfare as a lived value, not a talking point
Non-Negotiables
Respectful communication, empathy, cultural sensitivity, reliability, integrity, and genuine compassion are not optional. Neither is placing client welfare above personal ego.
This Role Is Not Right For You If…
- You are uncomfortable working within supervision structures or receiving feedback
- You prefer to work in silos rather than collaboratively
- You find it difficult to escalate, defer, or say "I'm not sure"
