At the NHS, we are reminded every day of how important life is. As a flexible working friendly organisation, we want to be sure that you can work in a way that is best for us and for our patients, and for you. Speak to us about how we might be able to accommodate a flexible working arrangement whether that's job share, part time or another flexible pattern. In addition, although the role advertised may have a 'home' office base indicated, we remain committed to supporting flexibility around workplace locations. If it works for the service, we will do our best to make it work for you.
The successful applicant will be an NHS employee and may therefore have contact with vulnerable service users. During the COVID-19 pandemic, it has been necessary to take significant steps to protect the health and safety of our staff, service users and those attending our sites. Unless exempt, we encourage and support staff to be vaccinated as this remains the best line of defence against COVID-19.
You will lead on accepting suitable referrals to the team and Dynamic Support Database, supporting other services to gain better understanding of the role of Keyworking, Dynamic Support and CETRs. You will support the team manager to allocate new referrals and ensure that keyworking assessment, formulation and high quality interventions are delivered within key time frames. You will travel, as most keyworking interventions are within local communities, homes or schools, reaching out to children and young people where they live, being creative and inspiring for our hard to reach families. At times when young people are admitted to an inpatient hospital you will be expected to provide inreach within the hospital either in person or via Attend Anywhere.
You will have experience of supervising staff and Safeguarding, and supporting staff on a day to day basis. You will need knowledge about child development, neurodiversity and mental health. Holding a small active caseload of children and young people, who without keyworking interventions, would be at a higher risk of hospital admission you will continue the keyworking journey of best practice, best outcomes, modelling and reporting on the effectiveness of Keyworking. You will also be a team player, who is keen to support keyworkers with their own keyworking journey and be an ambassador for the values and culture of Keyworking across the wider Keyworking Network.

The team prides itself on hearing the voice of the child and the family and developing a sense of their lived experience to understand needs. Keyworkers work hard to deliver person centred care alongside other services at times of crisis, bringing services together to work on shared goals and improved outcomes.
The KIOSK team are excited about this new role and we welcome applications from a range of disciplines or professions including but not limited to, Learning Disability, Social Work, Allied Health Professionals, but we are particularly interested in those who feel that Keyworking is their passion.
