Emotional Health and Wellbeing Practitioner
Child Action Northwest is an award-winning charity providing a range of innovative and creative services across the North of England that support children, families, and vulnerable adults. Our values of caring, empowerment, and never giving up are present in all we do and underpin our work. We believe in the power of the individual and communities to grow, develop, and change. Emotional Health and Wellbeing (EHWB), a service with CANW, offers therapeutic interventions and support to children, young people, and their families. The role involves the delivery of one-to-one evidence-based interventions to children aged between 5 and 18 years (25 SEND), where required, offering evidence-based interventions to support the family. The role requires experience of working therapeutically with children or young people, experience of safeguarding these groups, completing assessments, and outcome monitoring to enable individuals to reach their potential. This support is offered within schools, community venues, or via digital or remote platforms, and is based on the needs of the child/young person or family. Successful candidates will be expected to offer support between 9 am and 5 pm with some expectation to offer flexible working to meet the needs of the individual or service; offering occasional evening or weekend hours. This is a rewarding opportunity, ideal for a graduate or professional to work in a supportive but challenging role, working directly with children, young people, their families, and multi-agency teams of professionals. In exchange, the successful candidate will receive an excellent induction package and opportunities for further continued professional development. To apply: Please complete our online application form. The vacancy will close on 12th January but may close earlier if we are in receipt of sufficient applications. Interviews to be held on a date to be confirmed. For more information contact:
