Children’s mental health matters!

More and more children and young people are experiencing difficulties with their own mental health. There is no single solution, and we all need to work together to ensure young people can access the help they need and lead healthier and happier lives.

Working alongside GP practices, Social Prescribing Link Coordinators help children and families connect with health and community services which will make a real difference to the child’s emotional and physical wellbeing.

You will deliver personalised support to patients, independently managing new referrals from GP practices and a caseload. It’s essential that you have an understanding of how to prioritise need, and are able to recognise when to refer on to specialist services, and must be confident to communicate at all levels across health and social care sectors.

We are looking for someone who is organised, proactive and able to establish instant rapport with children and young people. You should have experience of working with children, delivering mental health support and a background in education, medical or social care.

This is a fixed term contract available for 9 months, with a potential 3 month extension. Salary is pro rata for the period. This is a full-time role Monday to Friday. The post covers Tunbridge Wells, so a car driver is essential.

The right support can make a difference to a child now and for their future.

We offer our employees:
• Inclusive values-based environment
• Competitive remuneration package
• Workplace pension scheme
• Generous annual leave entitlement
• Benenden Health Care
• Death in Service Benefit
• Cycle to Work Scheme
• Employee Supported Volunteering scheme
• Development opportunities
• and more

Imago is committed to Safer Recruitment practices, and the post is subject to references and an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check.

Please either submit your CV with a short covering note or visit our website at www.imago.community for full details.

Imago recognises that many people in our society experience discrimination or lack of opportunity for reasons that are not fair. We aim to create a culture that respects and values each other’s differences, and see these differences as an asset, as they improve our ability to meet the needs of the organisations and people we work with. We proactively seek to increase opportunities for inclusion, and celebrate diversity across our organisation and within communities.

Imago recognises its duty to safeguard and promote the welfare of the children, young people and adults at risk who access its services or with whom it comes into contact.
