Clinical Psychologist

Single Homeless Project has an opportunity for a Clinical Psychologist to join our experienced and committed teams based in Camden. You will join us on a full-time, permanent basis. In return, you will receive a competitive salary starting at £52,240 and rising incrementally to £55,400 per annum (pro rata). We are London’s leading homelessness charity – and we get things done. In a city where hundreds are forced into homelessness every day, our work has never been more needed or more challenging. We are rolling up our sleeves to make change and helping over 10,000 Londoners every year. We prevent homelessness, provide safe places to live and give people the opportunity to rebuild their lives and transform their futures.

We’re here for Londoners wherever they are on their journey. We start with trust, building relationships that help people feel safe, supported, and ready to move forward. Every day, we put people first in everything we do, challenging injustice and barriers that keep people from the safety, stability and opportunity they deserve. We stand alongside people as they rebuild and shape a future that feels their own.

Joining Single Homeless Project means joining a team that’s bold, compassionate and determined to do better for the people we support and for each other. You’ll work alongside colleagues with lived experience, in a space that’s trans-inclusive, disability-friendly, and actively striving to be anti-oppressive and equitable. We’re not perfect, but we’re real. We listen. We learn. And we push forward, together. Because this isn’t just a job. It’s a chance to lead with empathy, spark change, and help build a London where no one is left behind.

About the Clinical Psychologist role: This is a rare opportunity to take a clinical role out of a traditional setting and into the heart of Camden’s rough sleeping response. As Clinical Psychologist within our Rough Sleeping Outreach and Hub Service, you will work alongside people who are often navigating mental health challenges alongside homelessness, substance use and other experiences that can make engaging with support feel difficult or unsafe. Your role will be to help bridge that gap, bringing thoughtful, psychologically informed support directly to where it’s needed most.

About you:

• You’re a qualified Clinical Psychologist (HCPC registered) with experience supporting adults facing multiple disadvantage, including homelessness, mental health and substance use.
• You build trust in a way that feels genuine and consistent, especially with people who may have had difficult experiences of services.
• You’re confident in assessment and formulation, and use this to guide meaningful, person centred support and decision making.
• You have experience working alongside other services and professionals, and know how to navigate systems to get the right support in place.
• You’re comfortable influencing practice beyond your own caseload, whether through reflective practice, consultation, training or informal day to day support to teams.
• You bring curiosity, sound judgement and a calm, thoughtful approach, even in complex or high pressure situations.

Our attractive benefits package includes:

• A salary increase after successfully completing six month’s probationary period.
• A 37.5 hour working week including flexible working hours (core hours are 10am – 4pm) in non-accommodation services.
• 25 days annual leave, increasing annually to the maximum 30 days (plus paid Bank Holidays).
• A contributory pension scheme: Single Homeless Project will contribute the equivalent of 5% of your annual salary.
• Staff Health Cash Plan and discounts scheme.
• Comprehensive and integrated training programme designed specifically to develop the skills and knowledge involved in our work.
