Job Summary
Clinical Psychologist Full-time, Permanent.
The Opportunity to Shape the Future of Addiction Treatment
Bosence has been successfully providing residential addiction treatment for nearly 30 years, but the landscape of addiction care is evolving, and we are ready to evolve with it. Our existing therapeutic programme has supported thousands of individuals on their recovery journey, yet we recognize the need for a modern, inclusive approach that aligns with the latest evidence-based practices. We are embarking on a transformative project to completely overhaul our programme, bringing it up to date, broadening its scope, and making it more person-centred to enhance accessibility for a much wider range of people. This is an exciting opportunity for a forward-thinking Clinical Psychologist to lead this transformation, design a bespoke programme, and continue to adapt and refine it for years to come.

Bosence Farm Community is a respected UK charity providing detox, stabilisation, and rehab services to individuals overcoming substance misuse. We are passionate about delivering compassionate, trauma-informed care that changes lives. Located in the beautiful countryside of Cornwall, we offer a unique setting for both our staff and the individuals we support.
