Assistant Psychologist

Are you a compassionate Assistant Psychologist who is enthusiastic about forensic mental health?

We're looking for a motivated and thoughtful individual to join our Offender Personality Disorder (OPD) Pathway, where you'll play a key role in delivering psychologically-informed support to individuals with complex needs.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a well-established and expanding service, where you'll work closely with experienced Clinical Psychologists and be supported to develop your skills in assessment, formulation and intervention. You'll be part of a small, knowledgeable and supportive team that values reflective practice, wellbeing and continuous professional development.

The OPD Pathway is a specialist service and a joint initiative between His Majesty's Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS) and NHS England, working with high-risk offenders who experience severe personality disorder. Our team sits within the wider Somerset Forensic Service, offering opportunities to collaborate with a range of services including community forensic teams, inpatient settings, and criminal justice partners.

Due to the nature of this role and required police vetting, applicants must have lived in the UK for a minimum of three years and we are unable to consider applications that require visa sponsorship.
