Calling Mental Health Nurses (RMNs), Occupational Therapists, Psychological Therapists and other mental health professionals with experience of primary and secondary mental health care! This is an exciting role overseeing and working with a duty team, focused on supporting patients to access primary care services safely.

NHS West Sussex Talking Therapies (previously known as IAPT) is nationally recognised as a high performing talking therapies service, with a reputation for clinical excellence, innovation and collaborative working with secondary care and voluntary services. We provide a range of NICE compliant psychological therapies for people experiencing mild to moderate mental health difficulties, and achieve excellent recovery outcomes for our patients. We have good staff retention and aim to grow inclusive staff teams where diversity is valued and the workforce reflects the communities served.

We are excited to announce we are looking for a further Mental Health Risk and Referrals Manager to complement our current team of two and work alongside the Clinical Leadership team. We are collaborative in the way we work, encouraging everyone to contribute ideas and suggestions for continual improvement, and have made creative adaptations to our Duty system in response to our Mental Health Risk and Referral Managers' feedback.

We welcome applicants who have significant experience of managing risk and a working knowledge of primary and secondary mental health care services.
