Current Vacancies

Mental Health Nurse

Job title: Specialist Mental Health Nurse (ideally with prescribing qualification) in the First Contact Team (FCT)

Job summary: We are looking to expand our clinical workforce and are seeking applications from experienced mental health nurses (ideally with a prescribing qualification) to join our dedicated First Contact Team (FCT) supporting healthcare professionals working in the NHS.

Main duties of the job: The FCT is the front door to all the pathways at PH. This role is key in the delivery of a high quality, effective service to our patients, ensuring they are seen rapidly and by the most appropriate person within the team. The post holder will be required to carry out triage for new contacts and referrals, assessments of new patients, ongoing case management and liaison with other providers who might be involved in the care of the patients. You will work as part of a multi-disciplinary team which includes GPs, psychiatrists and therapists.

Please note we have a strict three-year gap between accessing the service as a patient and working with the service as a clinician. We understand that PH work can be challenging and want to ensure people have enough time to focus on their own recovery before taking on the issues of others.

For further details (JD and FAQs) and to apply for this role.

Applications close on 24 December 2025, interviews will take place in late January 2026.
