Clinical Psychologist

Come and join one of the UK's largest providers of complex care. We proudly employ over 4000+ people - no matter what your experience, we have jobs for everyone.

Do you aspire to make a meaningful impact to the lives of individuals on their recovery journey? We are seeking a Clinical Psychologist who is passionate about delivering transformative care across our neurological rehabilitation services: Loyd House, Christchurch View, and Park House.

At Active Care Group, every success story highlights our commitment to holistic, patient-centred care. Dennis’s journey at Christchurch View exemplifies the impact of this dedication. Years of trauma led Dennis to alcohol addiction, which, combined with a brain injury from two strokes and repeated falls and seizures, left him unable to live independently. However, with support from our team, Dennis has regained independence. Today, he is a volunteer, helping other residents with arts and crafts, cooking, and various activities. Reflecting on his progress, he says, “I can look at myself in the mirror now and like myself.”

Dennis’s story showcases how through tailored interventions, individuals can overcome significant challenges—from addiction to the effects of brain injury—and regain autonomy in their lives. This is the type of meaningful change you’ll facilitate every day across our services.

If you’re ready to make a lasting difference in the lives of service users like Dennis, apply today to join our team at Active Care Group.
