  • Significant post-qualification experience working with children and young people
  • Experience working within CAMHS settings, ideally with complex or high-risk presentations
  • Strong formulation, risk management, and MDT working skills
  • Previous experience at Principal or Consultant level or in a senior leadership role
  • Experience within Tier 4 / inpatient CAMHS settings
  • Training in evidence-based therapies relevant to adolescents (e.g. CBT, DBT, systemic approaches)

We encourage applications from candidates who may not meet every requirement but have relevant and transferable experience.

Why Work with Pulse
