About the role:

This is a rare opportunity to take a clinical role out of a traditional setting and into the heart of Camden’s rough sleeping response. As Clinical Psychologist within our Rough Sleeping Outreach and Hub Service, you will work alongside people who are often navigating mental health challenges alongside homelessness, substance use and other experiences that can make engaging with support feel difficult or unsafe. Your role will be to help bridge that gap, bringing thoughtful, psychologically informed support directly to where it’s needed most.

You’ll combine direct clinical work with a strong focus on influence and impact. This means completing assessments and formulations, supporting access to appropriate mental health pathways, and holding a small caseload for more structured therapeutic work at the hub. Alongside this, you’ll play a key role in strengthening how the wider service understands and responds to trauma and mental health, creating space for reflection, shared thinking and more effective ways of supporting clients to move away from the streets and towards safety and longer term stability.

Working closely with outreach teams, hub staff and external partners, you’ll help shape a more joined up and human approach to support. You’ll also line manage and develop an Assistant Psychologist, contributing to both their growth and the wider offer to clients. This is a role where your expertise won’t sit in isolation - it will influence practice, shape culture and ultimately help more people access the support they deserve.

About you:

• You’re a qualified Clinical Psychologist (HCPC registered) with experience supporting adults facing multiple disadvantage, including homelessness, mental health and substance use
• You build trust in a way that feels genuine and consistent, especially with people who may have had difficult experiences of services
• You’re confident in assessment and formulation, and use this to guide meaningful, person centred support and decision making
• You have experience working alongside other services and professionals, and know how to navigate systems to get the right support in place
• You’re comfortable influencing practice beyond your own caseload, whether through reflective practice, consultation, training or informal day to day support to teams
• You bring curiosity, sound judgement and a calm, thoughtful approach, even in complex or high pressure situations

About us:

We’re London’s leading homelessness charity – and we get things done.

In a city where hundreds are forced into homelessness every day, our work has never been more needed or more challenging. And we’re not shying away. We’re rolling up our sleeves to make change and helping over 10,000 Londoners every year. We prevent homelessness, provide safe places to live and give people the opportunity to rebuild their lives and transform their futures. And we never give up. 

We’re here for Londoners wherever they are on their journey. We start with trust, building relationships that help people feel safe, supported, and ready to move forward. Every day, we put people first in everything we do, challenging injustice and barriers that keep people from the safety, stability and opportunity they deserve. We stand alongside people as they rebuild and shape a future that feels their own. 

Joining Single Homeless Project means joining a team that’s bold, compassionate and determined to do better for the people we support and for each other. You’ll work alongside colleagues with lived experience, in a space that’s trans-inclusive, disability-friendly, and actively striving to be anti-oppressive and equitable. 

We’re not perfect, but we’re real. We listen. We learn. And we push forward, together. Because this isn’t just a job. It’s a chance to lead with empathy, spark change, and help build a London where no one is left behind.

Please note that Blagrave is currently trialling a four-day working week. At present, full-time hours total 32 per week. This arrangement may change following the outcome of the trial and could increase to a maximum of 37.5 hours per week.

Closing date: 30th April 2026

The Blagrave Trust is a charity that funds and collaborates with partners to bring lasting change to the lives of young people. We invest in young people as powerful forces for change and act upon their right to be heard in pursuit of a fair and just society.

We are committed to centring the voices of young people and those affected by the issues we work on. Our board and staff team bring lived and learnt experience that supports our mission. We listen closely to young people, partners and communities to better understand the realities they face and the systems that shape them.

Blagrave will launch a new organisational strategy in June 2026 that will guide our approach over the coming years.

About the role

As Blagrave prepares to launch our new strategy in 2026, this role will help ensure that learning informs our decisions and strengthens our work.

You will also help us communicate what we are learning to the wider sector (around 30% of your time). Through reflection pieces, identification of sector-relevant events, and collaboration with partners and funders, you will support Blagrave to be part of meaningful sector wide conversations.

If you are curious, collaborative and motivated by the belief that good learning leads to better outcomes for young people, this role offers a real opportunity to shape change within Blagrave and beyond.

We recognise this is a broad role. Final responsibilities and priorities will be shaped together with the postholder based on their strengths, experience and workload capacity.

• Ability to identify themes, patterns and connections across programmes and learning sources.
• Strong communication and writing skills, able to summarise learning clearly for different audiences.
• Experience supporting teams to learn, adapt and embed reflective practice in day-to-day work.
• A proactive, thoughtful problem solver able to balance reflection with practical action.
• Comfort with ambiguity and an iterative, learning-oriented approach.
• Digital literacy skills, including the ability to use simple tools for organising information, creating basic dashboards or summaries, and supporting light-touch knowledge management (e.g., shared drives, spreadsheets, survey tools).
• Experience communicating learning or insight externally (e.g., blogs, reflection pieces, sector discussions).
• Comfort organising information using simple knowledge-management tools (e.g., shared drive structures, basic templates, or light-touch digital tools).

At Blagrave, you will be part of a dedicated team focussed on work that matters. You’ll also get a package that includes:

• competitive salary
• coaching, training and support to help you develop

Do you have a scientific PhD and postdoc/industry experience? Do you want to apply your scientific skills and research experience to health and sustainable development projects? Are you interested in meeting people, sharing your skills and learning to be a first-class communicator? Then this is the job for you.

Who we are 

Scriptoria is a values-driven, ethically focused consulting company that has a strong international reputation for excellence. We specialise in helping clients around the world to tackle sustainable development, poverty reduction, health, and climate and environmental issues. Our Consulting, Data, Communications and Training Teams focus on knowledge management, data management and communications to help research, international development, government and other organisations better manage information and communicate their findings.

Who we're looking for 

We are looking for a dynamic new team member with a PhD in a science/STEM subject to join our innovative Consulting Team and to contribute to the work of our Data and Training Teams. Agriculture and the health sciences are areas we are particularly interested in.

We’re looking for someone who wants to engage with international development and research projects to help them work more efficiently and have a greater impact.

This role will offer a range of experiences and the opportunity to contribute to the diverse range of services that Scriptoria provides.

Approximately half of your time will be spent working with our exceptionally experienced team of knowledge management and data consultants to help us develop and deliver cutting-edge data-management/analytics solutions and project-management software systems to our clients.

Your work will also involve working to help us manage and organise the projects we deliver to clients.

Finally, you will be encouraged to contribute to company-wide strategy and business development.

Your role will include:

• Helping sustainable development and research programs to develop and implement digital tools and analytics systems to better manage their workflows and use their data

Wherever you work, you will interact regularly with senior team members to gain new skills and exchange ideas. 

This role requires regular business travel and overnight stays to deliver training courses (mostly in the UK, estimated 2 to 8 days per month). Most in-person training is delivered across the South of England and the Midlands (typically within around 2 hours’ travel of London).
