Job Description
This post requires the post holder to act as a co-ordinating (clinical) supervisor for trainees undertaking recognised training routes. To be eligible, the post holder should have two years post registration experience at the point of taking up post. However, applications will be welcomed from psychologists who have a minimum of 18 months post registration experience although they will not be able to formally take up the post until they have been registered for two years.
Psychology Services for HMPPS Youth Custody Service (YCS) are currently recruiting Senior Registered Psychologists.
YCS is geographically dispersed with children aged under 19 years accommodated in a variety of sites including:
HMYOIs Feltham (Heathrow), Werrington (Stoke-on-Trent), Wetherby (Yorkshire) and Parc (Wales); Oakhill Secure Training Centre (STC) and various Secure Children’s Homes (SCH) across England and Wales.
YCS Psychology Services provide a spectrum of services across all sites with staff based in all YOIs and the STC.

As part of the wider Psychology Services Group (PSG), opportunities for successful applicants to work with other populations and across other functions are abundant.
Whilst YCS Psychology Services are mainly Forensic, the team also includes Occupational, Counselling and Educational psychologists and Family Therapists.
Whilst motivation and the required resilience to work with children is essential, experience is only desirable as full training and support will be provided. All HCPC registered psychologists are therefore encouraged to apply or for an informal discussion or more information please contact [email protected]
