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.

Doing Good Recruitment is committed to the highest standards of equitable and inclusive recruitment. We actively welcome applications from people of all backgrounds, regardless of age, disability, gender identity, race, ethnicity, religion or belief, sexual orientation, caring responsibilities, socio-economic background, or any other protected characteristic.

About Action for Pulmonary Fibrosis

Action for Pulmonary Fibrosis (APF) is the UK’s leading patient charity dedicated to improving the lives of individuals and families affected by pulmonary fibrosis. Our mission is underpinned by values of compassionate, bold, expert and collaborative. We believe in creating a supportive environment in which both our employees and beneficiaries can thrive.

Founded in 2013 by people affected by PF and clinicians, APF has grown into a respected national charity rooted in community and evidence. We provide trusted information and support, help a growing network of support groups, campaign to improve access to care and invest in research to bring hope of new treatments. APF strives to be an organisation of equity and inclusion, welcoming people from all backgrounds – our team and volunteers aim to reflect the diverse communities we serve.

We have just launched an ambitious five-year strategy (2025–2030), co-created with the PF community, which focuses on expanding support, transforming care, and accelerating research. This strategy marks a step change with a clearer focus, stronger delivery model and greater ambition to ensure no one faces pulmonary fibrosis alone.

Role Purpose

We are looking for a Senior Education and Events Officer to coordinate and deliver our education and events programme for people affected by pulmonary fibrosis, healthcare professionals and wider stakeholders.

This is a hands-on role at the heart of APF’s work. You will plan and deliver education sessions, webinars, conferences and events, making sure they are welcoming, accessible, well organised and shaped around the needs of the people we support.

You will manage the full attendee journey, from registration and communications through to delivery, feedback and follow-up. You will also coordinate APF’s presence at external conferences, work with speakers, clinicians and partners, and help ensure people who engage with our events can easily access wider APF information, support and opportunities.

We are looking for someone with strong experience of organising events, education sessions, webinars, training or similar activity. You will be highly organised, confident working with a wide range of stakeholders and comfortable managing logistics, digital platforms, databases and attendee communications.

You will also be confident hosting or supporting sessions both online and in person, and able to use feedback and data to improve future activity.

This is a great opportunity to help APF deliver high-quality education and events that give people affected by pulmonary fibrosis practical information, reassurance and confidence throughout their journey.

To apply, please submit a CV and a covering letter of no more than two pages outlining your suitability for the role and how your skills and experience meet the requirements of the job description.

Interviews will be held on a rolling basis, so we encourage interested candidates to apply as soon as possible.
