You will work in partnership with multi-disciplinary Mental and Physical Health Teams within Primary Care health providers and will be expected to champion the employment agenda, instilling the belief that people with mental and/or physical health needs want to work and with the right support can work; and therefore generating referrals to the service.
You will work in partnership with individual service users, developing relationships that are enabling and empowering.
