NHS AfC: Band 7

North London Mental Health Partnership includes Barnet, Enfield and Haringey Mental Health NHS Trust (BEH) and Camden and Islington NHS Foundation Trust (C&I). 

Together, our two trusts employ around 6,000 staff and support almost a quarter of a million adults and children with mental health conditions. We are a forward-thinking, innovative organisation, committed to delivering  the very best care possible.

We provide a wide range of mental health specialist services, including children and young people’s mental health services, prison services, forensic services, eating disorders and drug and alcohol recovery. We also support the UK Armed forces community, including members of the Reserve Forces, providing specialist veteran services across London. 

Both our trusts are rated ‘Good’ by the Care Quality Commission, with many areas judged to be Outstanding.

We proactively welcome diversity in our workforce and pride ourselves on being an inclusive employer.  We aim to recruit from our local communities and provide Apprenticeship opportunities as well as employment opportunities for care-leavers.

We have been working together in a Partnership between Barnet, Enfield and Haringey Mental Health NHS Trust and Camden and Islington NHS Foundation Trust for some time, with a single Chair and Chief Executive since 2021 and single Executive Team since 2022. We launched our North London Mental Health Partnership Strategy in May 2023 and in July 2023 our Boards agreed that coming together to create one new Trust is best for our service users, our staff and our local communities. Subject to final approvals, we will be formally established as one new Trust on 1 October 2024.
