Dimensions is proud to be one of very few social care organisations that are accredited by the Great Places To Work programme in 2024 - now 6 years in a row!
Dimensions Forensic Team supports people with learning disabilities or autism who have, or are likely to, come into contact with the Criminal Justice System, to change their lives.
We use a humanistic, holistic and trauma informed approach to give the People We Work Alongside positive social experiences. By building strong social circles and learning through structured sessional work with the Clinical Practitioner, the People We Work Alongside are given a reason to care, which gives them a reason to change.
To be considered for this role you will need to hold a degree in Psychology, Criminology, Forensic Studies or an equivalent relevant qualification.
We have an exciting opportunity for a Clinical Practitioner to join our Forensic Team in the Hertfordshire region on a permanent basis, working 37.5 hours per week.
Are you someone who sees the potential in others? Are you an empathetic, non-judgemental person with the ability to maintain appropriate boundaries and effectively manage risk?
We're looking for a Clinical Practitioner to design, develop and provide specialist clinical assessments, plans and advice to the people we support, our support teams and external agents.
You will be responsible for a caseload where, in addition to the above, you will consult, monitor, educate and mentor to ensure that the people we support, and our teams are safe and are being given the support they need to continuously grow and develop. As part of the role you will seek out and build professional partnerships to further support the development of Dimensions.
This is a job that will keep you on your toes - it's fascinating and challenging, rewarding and exhausting, frustrating and exciting. No two days will be the same but with your professional and personal skills and talents, and the support and training provided by Dimensions, it's a fantastic opportunity to truly make a difference in the lives of others and to build upon and further your career.
Interviews will take place on Wednesday 15th January 2025, via Microsoft teams.
