To build on the expertise within the School we are seeking to appoint a Teaching Fellow A or B (dependant on experience and/or qualifications) to co-lead our Family Interventions in Psychosis and Bipolar Disorder programme, run in conjunction with Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust. This training is one of four courses commissioned nationally by Health Education England (HEE) to deliver the National Curriculum in Family Interventions for Psychosis & Bipolar Disorder.

The two modules take an integrated approach to family interventions, drawing from the strengths of cognitive-behavioural and systemic perspectives, and has been running since 2010. The post holder would be the University Module Leader for the two modules within this programme, alongside the Co-Module Lead, based within the Trust.

The post holder must have a training in Family Interventions for Psychosis as well as a professional mental health qualification with appropriate professional registration and relevant experience/practice in adult mental health.

This will be negotiable, dependent on the learning and support needs of the successful candidate.

The School is a leading provider of undergraduate and postgraduate awarded Gold for our Teaching. We are always happy to support clinicians wishing to move into a role in higher education, we are happy to discuss secondments as well as the substantive post.
