Lincolnshire Partnership Foundation Trust Eating Disorder service is going through a system wide mental health transformation programme in line with the Long-Term Plan (LTP). This expansion is planned to improve care delivery and parity of esteem between physical and mental health and ensure that everyone in Lincolnshire who is experiencing an eating disorder will receive a service. This is an exciting time to join the team when we are looking to expand our workforce and train more people to deliver eating disorder therapies across Lincolnshire.

This new post will ultimately work across the county aligned with primary care networks and associated GP practices, supporting clients with eating disorders in your own community, and is an exciting time to support the successful creation of these new pathways.

We are looking for someone who is passionate about supporting service users with an eating disorder to recover.

You will be part of a dynamic multi-disciplinary Adult Eating Disorder team delivering psychologically informed interventions and supporting adults to receive the right care in a community setting. You will be supported and receive regular supervision to develop your knowledge and skills to utilise you’re training, working alongside service users, families, carers and multi-disciplinary team members to co-ordinate care, supporting collaborative decision-making about care and treatment through individual and group interventions

You will need to have flexibility and adaptability and a passion for working with adults with an eating disorder within a well-established team. However, you will be required to deliver an autonomous service as part of your role, within professional guidelines and the overall Trust policies and procedures.

Lincolnshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust provides mental health services and a number of learning disability, autism and social care services in the county of Lincolnshire. Employing around 2,900 staff, and serving a population of over 768,400, our people lie at the heart of everything we do.

You could be part of a Trust rated by staff as one of the best mental health and learning disability trusts in England. We firmly believe the key to high quality care is a contented workforce.
