Service management jobs
The Counselling Coordinator role is key to SEL Mind's exciting new counselling service for Black residents of Southwark, delivered as part of the wider Southwark Wellbeing Hub. This role will shape the Wellbeing Hub's provision to Black communities, expanding equitable access to culturally-appropriate support. The main working site is a community centre in Southwark.
As Coordinator, you will provide initial clinical assessments to prospective service users and coordinate a small pool of Trainee Counsellors, expanding future access to Black-led counselling. You'll line manage an Administrator who is responsible for scheduling and other practical elements of the service. You'll also work closely in partnership with Black Psychotherapy to deliver relevant, de-colonial approaches.
We are seeking a qualified therapist who is passionate about improving Black people's access to early mental health support. Relationships and partnership working is vital, so you should be able to work independently but collaboratively, to be proactive and show initiative.
The role will involve:
- Undertaking skilled assessments of client needs and risks, taking into account the nature and complexity of presenting needs and suitability for short-term therapeutic work
- Recruiting and training volunteer Counsellors, ensuring trauma-informed work integrating spirituality and cultural values, using creative therapeutic modalities, and maintaining therapeutic relationships that honour diverse healing approaches
- Contributing to the development and continuous improvement of the service, bringing recommendations to support the SWH's inclusivity and best practice
This role involves providing culturally specific support to Black clients. Applicants must be able to demonstrate lived experience as a part of, and deep cultural understanding within, Black communities, and the ability to build trust with Black service users.
Successful applicants will be expected to undergo an Enhanced Level Disclosure and Barring Service check.
Closing date: Tuesday 30th June (11:59pm)
Likely interview date: Thursday 9th July
We encourage early applications as we reserve the right to close the vacancy early if we receive a high number of applications.
