Experience working with or being a volunteer is essential and experience of delivering training would equip you well for the role. The ability to support people with adverse lived experiences in a grounded manner and be able to provide support within professional boundaries is very important. Giving and receiving feedback, gathering data and other evidence to inform service development, and exercising reflective practice are all essential attributes.

The role is home-based, and you will be provided with all office equipment and a travel budget as needed. In order to manage your time and travel effectively you will need to be comfortable forming and developing relationships online, attending and hosting meetings via zoom or MS Teams (this is both business meetings with partner organisations and mutual aid recovery meetings). You will be required to conduct national travel and occasional overnight stays, visiting SMART meetings and facilitators in your area delivering a package of support to facilitators and our partners, helping the charity to grow by helping to generate new business. There are also team development residental trips away with the SMART team every year.

In addition, you will contribute to the global development of SMART Recovery via veteran orientated projects identified by SMART Recovery International. It is essential that you can travel and work flexibly to meet the needs of the role.

Location of Work: Home/Remote working with some travel for meetings and events.

About Trauma Treatment International

Trauma Treatment International (TTI) is a registered charity in the UK. Our focus and expertise is in providing evidence-based psychological treatment and support to survivors of collective violence*, internationally. We provide direct psychological assessment, formulations and treatment to survivors of torture, trafficking, slavery and war, and organisational support (organisational reviews, training, reflective practice and consultation) to human rights organisations that share our aims (of reducing collective violence and/ or support people affected by collective violence) to mitigate the impact of trauma exposure on the workforce, and assist in sustaining the important work they undertake. 

TTI was founded in 2017 and has grown significantly in the last few years. With an increase in people affected by torture, trafficking and slavery, persecution, war and other forms of collective violence, efficient, evidence-based and effective trauma-informed responses are critical in mitigating the cycle of violence and contributing to more peaceful societies. TTI is borderless, working remotely to ensure that we can meet need, wherever it is in the world. 

*‘Collective violence’ is defined as "the instrumental use of violence by people who identify themselves as members of a group--whether this group is transitory or has a more permanent identity--against another group or set of individuals, in order to achieve political, economic, or social objectives” (Garfield, Llanten Morales, & Dresden, 2003, p.144).

We are calling for Specialist Associates to join our highly experienced team to increase our multidisciplinary expertise, and to meet the holistic needs of our clients, to ensure that they receive the very best clinical service.

Specialist Associates could be asked:

● for their professional advice by our internal clinical leadership team and/ or to join formulation meetings in particularly complex cases

● to join psychological sessions to offer a broader MDT perspective in complex cases

● to assist in TTI’s wider work (depending on individual associates interests, skills, availability and capacity)

In particular, we are looking for experienced:

● Social workers (who have worked in mental health services)

● Speech and language therapists

● Psychiatrists

● Occupational therapists (who have worked in mental health services)

● Clinical psychologists (trained in evidence-based trauma treatments with experience of treating PTSD/ C-PTSD and/ or undertaking adult neurodevelopmental assessments)

● Trainers (mental health professionals with experience of delivering training)

● Doctors

● Nurses

● Neurologists 

● Physiotherapists

● Researchers

How much time will I need to give?

We like to develop sustainable relationships with consistent, skilled and reliable associates who we know well. As a small charity, our need for input from our associates will change dynamically based on funding and projects we are undertaking. This means that whilst at times we might have a low need for input from you, at other times we might request more.

We understand that our Specialist Associates will likely have other work and life-demands that mean that what they can offer may also change over time. We make sure that we have regular contact so that our Clinical Lead understands what your time commitment is and can maximise your skills, interests and availability (whether this is a few hours a year, a month or a week) to match our needs as an organisation.

TTI provides the opportunity for connection time, peer supervision and in-house training, which Specialist Associates are welcome to attend in their own time and at no cost to TTI. These sessions are not mandatory but provide a good opportunity to build skills, share learning and engage in the wider organisation as a team as we grow and develop.
 

What we can offer you:

Becoming an associate at TTI is a highly rewarding role and in addition to financial renumeration provides the opportunity to:

· work alongside other skilled MDT professionals, highly motivated to provide evidence based and excellent care to people exposed to collective violence, use your specialist skills to help people reduce the distress they are in and improve their quality of life in ways they ask for, following experiencing collective violence and join our research advisory group, clinical advisory group and project advisory group (if appropriate). 

· be part of a growing organisation and committed team striving to embody trauma informed principles as we work together to achieve our mission of a world free from the trauma of collective violence.
