Doing Good Recruitment is thrilled to be partnering with In Your Corner to find their next Clinical Lead (Maternity Cover)

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced Clinical Psychologist or Counselling Psychologist with leadership experience to join an award-winning youth mental health charity as Clinical Lead on a 9-12 month maternity cover contract.

Reporting directly to the CEO and working as a key member of the senior leadership team, you will provide clinical leadership, governance oversight, and supervision across a growing organisation that is transforming the lives of vulnerable young people across London.

In Your Corner

In Your Corner is ambitious charity entering an exciting period of growth and development as it continues to raise its profile within the youth mental health sector.

For more than seven years, the organisation has delivered innovative, evidence-based psychological interventions alongside non-contact boxing programmes designed to improve the mental and physical wellbeing of some of London's most vulnerable young people.

Their unique group intervention model brings together accredited boxing coaches and clinical psychology professionals to engage young people who may be struggling with their emotional wellbeing and who often face barriers to accessing traditional therapeutic support.

As a small, agile and pioneering charity, In Your Corner is committed to developing practice-based evidence and creating meaningful, lasting change for young people and their families.

About the Role

The Clinical Lead plays a pivotal role within the organisation, holding responsibility for clinical governance, risk management, and clinical decision-making.

Working predominantly remotely, with some travel across Inner London project locations, you will lead and support a dedicated team of clinical specialists and Honorary Assistant Psychologists delivering In Your Corner's innovative interventions.

Key responsibilities include:

• Providing clinical leadership and governance oversight across the organisation.
• Managing, mentoring and supervising clinical specialists and Assistant Psychologists.
• Delivering both individual and group clinical supervision.
• Overseeing referral management processes and project delivery.
• Supporting quality assurance, safeguarding and clinical decision-making.
• Working closely with the CEO and wider leadership team to support organisational development and service growth.

About You

This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced and compassionate clinical leader who is passionate about improving mental health outcomes for young people. You will be excited by the chance to combine strategic leadership, clinical excellence and innovation within a growing organisation that is challenging traditional approaches to youth mental health support. Equally comfortable supporting staff, overseeing governance and contributing to organisational development, you'll be motivated by the opportunity to help shape services that create lasting impact for young Londoners and their families.

You will possess:

• A genuine commitment to improving outcomes for vulnerable young people.
• A post-graduate qualification and current professional registration in a core child mental health profession e.g. Clinical Psychology (D. Clin. Psych), Counselling Psychology (DPsych), or Senior Psychotherapist (BABCP or BACP).
• Robust knowledge of theory and research that underpins working with adolescents with complex mental health  difficulties, including those who have experienced trauma, adversity, and social exclusion.
• Strong organisational and planning skills - this role involves managing competing priorities across a varied workload.
• Line Management experience - supporting clinicians, conducting performancereviews and support with recruitment.
• Clinical governance skills, including clinical supervision, safeguarding, risk management and quality assurance.
• Excellent data management and analysis skills.
• A high degree of autonomy and self-direction is essential.

If your experience aligns with most of the criteria and you are excited by the opportunity, we encourage you to apply.

About Us

The Comedy School draws on the power of comedy to improve wellbeing across community, health, education and criminal justice settings. Since 1998, we have co-designed and delivered workshops, courses and training projects that build confidence, resilience and life skills for socially isolated and vulnerable people. We have worked with individuals with mental health conditions in collaboration with South London and Maudsley Recovery College for 15 years, and in 2023 expanded this work to veterans in partnership with London’s NHS Veterans Mental Health Services. Our Comedy for Veterans programme delivers evidence-based interventions that improve confidence, connections, wellbeing and sense of purpose.

Purpose of Role: The Veterans’ Worker will lead on outreach and peer support within the Comedy for Veterans Project, with a specific focus on engaging veterans from Black and ethnic minority backgrounds, and other communities underrepresented in traditional support pathways. The role aims to ensure inclusive participation, support mental wellbeing, and sustain long-term engagement with the project.

Key Responsibilities: 

• Lead outreach and engagement efforts to promote the Comedy for Veterans Project, focusing on building trust and participation among veterans from Black, ethnic minority, and underserved communities.
• Develop and maintain partnerships with veteran organisations, community groups, and stakeholders to enhance referrals, collaboration, and community presence.
• Provide peer support and mentoring to veterans enrolled in the project, encouraging sustained participation, confidence-building, and shared learning.
• Identify and address participation barriers, including logistical, emotional, or wellbeing challenges, and signpost to appropriate services when needed.
• Support the delivery of workshops and events, working closely with facilitators to ensure activities are inclusive, accessible, and responsive to participants’ needs.
• Collaborate with staff and partners to monitor progress, share relevant participant insights (within confidentiality boundaries), and contribute to a safe, trauma-informed environment.
• Document attendance, feedback, and outcomes for evaluation purposes, and report on engagement levels and project impact.

Essential Criteria: 

• Proven experience in outreach, peer support, mentoring, or community engagement—ideally with veterans or marginalised groups.
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build trust and rapport across diverse social, cultural, and ethnic backgrounds.
• Understanding of mental health and wellbeing, including challenges commonly faced by veterans, and the confidence to respond supportively.
• Knowledge of safeguarding procedures, confidentiality protocols, and maintaining professional boundaries when working with vulnerable adults.
• Ability to work independently and manage time, alongside a flexible approach to group dynamics, changing needs, and varying energy levels.
• Commitment to inclusion and accessibility, with sensitivity to the social, cultural, and structural barriers some veterans may face.

Desirable: 

• Background in social work, community organising, mental health support, or creative arts facilitation.
• Certification in Mental Health First Aid or equivalent.
• Understanding of trauma-informed approaches in community and learning settings.

Security Checks: Enhanced DBS clearance required and project specific security checks maybe required.
