An opportunity has arisen within the Older Adult Community Mental Health Team (OACMHT) and Memory Clinic in Witney for a professional and dedicated Deputy Team Manager.

We are seeking a skilled and experienced, full time registered Mental Health Nurse who enjoys working with Older Adults and wants to make a difference in the services we provide. We want you to join our senior leadership team to support our staff and patients.

You will also have a role in ensuring the day-to-day smooth running and management of the Memory Clinic which runs alongside out OACMHT team.

We take pride in working with our patients and so we want you to have a caring and committed attitude with a strong understanding of the needs of older adults with a variety of mental health needs. The Older Adult Community Mental health teamwork is demanding, complex and diverse but we are a small, cohesive team who are committed to supporting each other and we enjoy what we do!

By joining our team, you are joining an enthusiastic and passionate team where staff well-being is at the top of the agenda.

Regular supervision will be provided, and you will be encouraged to undertake any training relevant to your professional and personal development. There will be opportunities for you to gain management and leadership training. You will be supported closely by your colleagues, Team Manager and Service Manager.
