90% of people with severe mental illness want to work, yet only 8% are employed. For most of us having paid work is central to our wellbeing, health, life opportunities and financial security. People accessing mental health services consistently say that getting a job is important for their recovery and wellbeing.The Individual Placement Support (IPS), model delivers limitless support and guidance to both employers and new employees. IPS brings employment specialists into clinical teams.I support clients with different interests, skills and barriers. This requires a familiarity with local skills, economic priorities, and employment challenges. Innovative thinking with a grasp of marginalised transition barriers.Clients come from diverse backgrounds which reflect today’s society: all ages from 18 upwards, all genders, religious beliefs, cultures, forensic backgrounds (people who have a criminal record and/or involved in the criminal justice system) and health conditions. With the right support and the opportunity to help businesses design job profiles that fit both the needs of the employer and potential candidates - the recruitment process opens to be inclusive, more accessible and provide access to a much wider pool of incredible talent.Track record of stakeholder engagement in education, careers, and business sectors working alongside multiple stakeholders.Understanding of the learning and employment landscape, including key programmes like National Apprenticeship Service and SWAPS.Taking a multi-disciplinary approach, I engage with employers, clinicians, community support teams, and wider stakehlders to explore new connections.This role requires a substantial level of record maintainance, KPI's in the form of 25 Fidelity scores, and managing sensitive information.The IPS role can be to help re-focus the clinical conversations on hope, the opportunity for clients to recover and achieve important life goals.

Providing support at several inpatient wards across the West Midlands. These are Psychiatric Intensive Care Units (PICU’s), Forensic Low Security Units and Forensic Rehabilitation Units. PICU’s are specialist wards that provide inpatient mental health care, assessment and comprehensive treatment to individuals who are experiencing the most acutely, disturbed phase of a serious mental disorder.Forensic Rehabilitation Units provide support to service users with severe mental health problems who have committed a criminal offence or who have shown aggressive or threatening behaviour.Forensic Low Security Units provide support and care for people with learning disabilities and complex health needs, who have come into contact with the criminal justice system and have shown seriously aggressive or threatening behaviour.Every person and every shift is different, challenging, difficult, extraordinary and emotive.
