Business Support Officer

<h4>Job summary</h4>Please refer to Job Description<h4>Job description</h4><p><strong>PIPE Clinical Lead (Band Senior Psychologist) HMP Hull </strong></p><p>This is an exciting opportunity to join the North East &amp; Yorkshire Psychology Services as Clinical Lead for a 50-bed progression PIPE (Psychologically Informed Planned Environment) at HMP Hull, as part of the jointly commissioned OPD Pathway. This post will be full time, with 0.9 wte based on the PIPE and 0.1 wte in the wider NE&amp;Y Psychology team. This role is a permanent role as a senior registered psychologist (Band 8). The post holder would be expected to engage in all necessary duties as a member of the NE&amp;Y Psychology team including but not limited to mandatory training and reporting requirements, as well as completing additional necessary duties as required by the PIPE, including regular attendance at in-person national meetings at various locations and regular in-person group clinical supervision. Therefore, flexibility to travel is a requirement of this post. The post holder would be required to be based on the PIPE at HMP Hull for the majority of the working week; ability for flexible/ hybrid working is extremely limited due to the relational nature of the role. To be eligible, the post holder should have two years post registration experience at the point of taking up post.</p><p>This is a non-operational job with line management responsibilities. </p><p><strong>PIPE Context: </strong></p><p>Psychologically Informed Planned Environments (PIPEs) are specifically designed, contained environments where staff members have additional training to develop an increased psychological understanding of their work. This understanding enables them to create an enhanced safe and supportive environment, which can facilitate the development of those who live and work there. They are designed to have a particular focus on the environment in which they operate; actively recognising the importance and quality of relationships and interactions. They aim to maximise ordinary situations and to approach these in a psychologically informed way, paying attention to interpersonal difficulties, for example those issues that might be linked to personality disorder. PIPEs are not treatment interventions - the PIPEs model has been developed as an environmental approach to enhance the delivery of core work within Prison and Probation (community) settings, where additional psychological or ‘psychosocial’ considerations are required. </p><p><strong>Clinical Lead Duties: </strong></p><p>The post holder will hold a strategic position as Clinical Lead for the PIPE service. They will have a key role in creating and maintaining a healthy psychosocial environment; ensuring that the unit adheres to the theoretical principles of the PIPE model. This will include design, delivery and oversight of the core components of the PIPE model, including group work and the management of group dynamics. The post holder will manage the development of a positive and enabling milieu, ensuring that the delivery of psychosocial aspects of the PIPE service is compliant with policy and delivery arrangements. This will include ensuring the PIPE service works towards and meeting and maintaining the standards set out for the Enabling Environment accreditation. </p><p><strong>Responsibilities as Clinical Lead: </strong></p><p>The post holder will be managing a wide range of complex dynamics within the environment and host organisation. This will require the post holder to take on a leadership role within the organisation, working effectively alongside operational and strategic leads for the service. The post holder will contribute to staff development by offering training, supporting and providing clinical supervision. They will also participate in individual and group (peer) supervision, provided in a central location by a group analytic consultant each month. The PIPE clinical lead will ensure that the application of the PIPE service supports and adheres to its agreed pathway function. </p><p>Attendance at monthly Clinical Lead business meetings (London), monthly individual and group supervision sessions provided externally (Leeds) and quarterly contract review meetings with commissioners is integral to the role.
