Job overview

An exciting opportunity has arisen within Cornwall Foundation Trust’s Countywide Adult Eating Disorder Service. Due to service transformation and changes in client need, we are restructuring and seeking experienced Core Professionals from a Social Work or Mental Health Nursing background to join our multidisciplinary team.

The post holder will manage liaison, discharge and step-downs from general and specialist eating disorder units, including 72‑hour follow-ups and intensive short-term home support. They will hold a fluctuating caseload, providing bespoke, time-limited interventions and wellbeing support for clients, including those on waiting lists, while working closely with partner agencies to ensure coordinated, person-centred care.

The role also includes facilitating early engagement courses with dietetic and psychology colleagues, providing one day per week of clinician advisory support, and contributing to initial assessments on a rotational basis. All work is delivered within a supportive MDT framework, with a strong focus on managing risk, safeguarding, and evidence-based practice to support each individual’s recovery journey.

This is a community-based role that requires frequent travel to various locations throughout the county including areas that may not be accessible by public transportation. Successful candidates will need to demonstrate how they will manage these travel requirements.

Main duties of the job

You will provide clinical advice and support to the administrative team, offer supervision to junior staff, and provide monthly clinical supervision to embedded VSCE colleagues. You will recognise your own limitations, seek supervision when required, and attend management, professional, safeguarding, tribunal, ward round and discharge planning meetings as directed.

The role includes providing monthly initial assessment slots (urgent and routine), completing clinical risk and mental health assessments, formulation and short-term contingency planning, and managing liaison, discharge and step-downs from general and specialist eating disorder units, including 72‑hour follow-ups and intensive short-term home support.

You will hold a fluctuating caseload for bespoke, time-limited interventions and wellbeing support, including for clients on waiting lists, and work closely with partner agencies to ensure coordinated, person-centred care. Additional duties include course facilitation alongside dietetic and psychology colleagues, one day per week of clinician advisory support, supporting Mental Health Act processes when required, and working within MDT and safeguarding frameworks using evidence-based practice.
