As the number of families we support grows we are always looking for established arts therapists, counsellors and EMDR practitioners. You may already have your own practice and be interested in taking on new clients or want to develop your experience supporting families through grief and bereavement. We offer flexible contracts, the opportunity to use our dedicated spaces and support from our wider team.
Careers in our Family Support team
Featured role
A typical week
Hospital sitting
Spend a couple of hours sitting with a child when they are in hospital, reading books or doing activities. This allows parents a short break to support other children, make telephone calls or just have the chance to pop home.
Bereavement check-in
Calling a bereaved parent on their child’s birthday, to check in and see how they are, or making up and sending a personalised pamper pack for them.
Siblings day
Helping out at one of our siblings’ days, which give siblings of supported children a day that’s all about them, allowing them to have fun, make friends and share their feelings in a supportive environment.
Memory making
Create and decorate a cast of a child and parent holding hands. These keepsakes are treasured by families for years to come.
Key benefits
Skills development
We support all our staff in developing their skills and showcasing their expertise, with weekly learning sessions and monthly journal clubs.
Perks
You’ll be eligible for a Blue Light discount card, plus enjoy perks like free meals at our Guildford hospice.
Flexible working
We know that life can be complicated, so we are happy to discuss flexible working with you.
