At SPFT we put people first. We’ll do everything possible to help you feel respected, valued and included. You’ll have opportunities to learn, grow and gain new experiences to support your career, with access to lifelong learning and professional development.
We actively promote flexible working and understand how important work life balance is, especially in healthcare. Whether it’s part time hours, hybrid working or flexible start and finish times, we’ll explore what works for you and the role.
We recognise that AI is becoming part of daily life and you may choose to use it to help prepare your application. We welcome innovation but ask that anything you submit reflects your own abilities, experience and voice. AI can support how you describe your skills and experience, but it should never replace your own words as we want to get to know you.
We’re shaping a workplace where ideas are encouraged, technology supports you and everyone has a voice in how we improve. If that sounds like the kind of organisation you want to be part of, we’d love to hear from you.

The Sussex Early Intervention in Psychosis Service (EIP) has an important and integral role to play in supporting service users and their families/carers in a community setting. EIP is founded on an extensive and compelling evidence base which has demonstrated early and sustained intervention in psychosis can contribute significantly to the amelioration of initial problems, and consequently improve long-term outcomes in a cost effective manner. Effective early treatment is thought to reduce the probability of the emergence of longer term “treatment resistant” symptoms, and contributes to the avoidance of the “revolving door” syndrome of repeated relapse and as suicide is highest in the first few years of First Episode Psychosis (FEP). EIP can reduce the risk of suicide.
Advert
The Sussex EIP service main area of work is the delivery of care and treatment to young people and adults aged 14-65 experiencing a first episode of psychosis. Help will be offered to reduce service user’s distress, maintain independence and integrity of care networks, shorten illness, prevent relapse, promote recovery and social inclusion, and minimise the impact of disabilities. Work with friends and family members are seen as an integral element to the way care is delivered.
The EIP service is an integral part of the CAMHs and Specialist services division. The service is made up of 6 EIP teams across Sussex managed by a Trust wide Early Intervention General manager and supported by a dedicated EIP Clinical Lead. The teams are located in Horsham, Worthing, Bognor, Brighton, Hailsham and Hastings. This post is within the Brighton Team.
