We are looking for a WARD CLERK to join our team. The Young People’s Unit (YPU) provides in-patient care and treatment to young people aged 12-18 experiencing acute mental illness.

If you want to contribute to this service and you think you are the kind of person who can be a good team member, this is an ideal opportunity for you.

We recognise that some people interested in the opportunities provided by working in this exciting and challenging environment may have little experience in child and adolescent mental health services, therefore the unit will provide training as required.
