Join the Team
Become part of the Charlie Waller Trust team
The Charlie Waller Trust was created by the Waller family in 1997 in response to the loss of their son and brother Charlie to suicide, having suffered from depression. We have since become one of the UK’s most respected mental health charities.
We provide mental health training and resources with a focus on children and young people. We equip parents, carers, teachers and communities with the best and latest evidence-based strategies. We give them the knowledge and confidence to help young people thrive.
If you’re interested in joining our team, we may have an opportunity for you – within our head office, as part of our network of freelance trainers, or as a volunteer.
Clinical Lead
The role is based at the Trust’s office in West Berkshire with a minimum of one day per week (typically Mondays) expected to be worked at our Newbury office. Flexible working arrangements are available with the understanding that this must meet the objectives of the charity and requirements of the role.
Part-time (0.4 FTE), permanent, £51,612 - £54,757k FTE, depending on experience.
This is an exciting and vital role performing a range of clinical leadership functions within our leading mental health charity focused on supporting the systems around children and young people.
We are looking for a compassionate, flexible, confident and efficient mental health professional with excellent communication skills and experience of providing training and consultancy into education settings, as well as working clinically with children, young people and their families. The role is varied and would suit someone with experience of working in a range of child and adolescent mental health settings. The role sits within the Charitable Activity team whilst also supporting other areas of the Trust including fundraising and communications activity where a clinical perspective is indicated (e.g., safeguarding considerations for a particular fundraising event, or liaison with communications colleagues regarding the evidence-base of our website content). There will be opportunities to increase knowledge and the successful candidate could be supported to undertake further study.
If you would like an informal discussion about the role with Dr Hannah Vickery, our CEO, this can be arranged via Kerryn Cyfka, Executive Assistant to the CEO, on kerryn.cyfka@charliewaller.org
