Are you a qualified Counsellor/Psychotherapist looking for a role where no two calls are the same? We are currently recruiting for Daytime Counsellors/Psychotherapists to join an established wellbeing service in the Manchester area.

The role:

  • As a counsellor/psychotherapist with us, you'll be supporting people who get in touch with the service for immediate emotional and wellbeing support.
  • Rather than working with a set caseload or seeing the same clients week after week, you'll be having one-off telephone conversations with people reaching out at the point they need support.
  • Calls can cover a wide range of topics, including anxiety, stress, low mood, relationships, bereavement, work and personal difficulties.
  • Your role will be to listen, understand what the caller needs, provide appropriate therapeutic support and help them identify the most suitable next steps.

You’ll also:

  • Take inbound calls from people looking for emotional support.
  • Provide counselling and therapeutic support during the call.
  • Complete appropriate assessments.
  • Identify and respond to risk and safeguarding concerns.
  • Use your professional judgement to determine the appropriate support.
  • Signpost callers to relevant services where needed.
  • Maintain accurate clinical records.
  • Work alongside a wider team of counselling and wellbeing professionals.

What’s on offer:

  • £30,000 - £33,000 per annum.
  • 5 weeks fully paid training for all counsellor/psychotherapists.
  • £70 monthly contribution towards supervision for counsellors/psychotherapists.
  • BACP membership paid after probation.
  • Access to a CPD Hub.
  • 25 days annual leave + bank holidays.
  • Birthday off.
  • Salary reviews every 6 months.
  • Set daytime shifts, with no rotating nights.

About you:

You’ll need to be a qualified Counsellor/Psychotherapist with relevant counselling experience and membership of a recognised professional body. You’ll be confident working independently, managing sensitive conversations and supporting people presenting with a wide range of emotional difficulties. If you enjoy variety, one-off therapeutic conversations and being there for people when they need support, this could be a great opportunity.
