Location: North Ayrshire (Hybrid/Flexible) Pay Rate: £50.00 per hour (Limited/Umbrella) Contract: Initial 3-6 months (High priority)
The Opportunity
Are you a qualified Mental Health Officer looking for a high-yield contract with a clear, focused workload?
We are currently recruiting for two experienced MHOs to join North Ayrshire's Mental Health service. Unlike standard frontline roles, these positions are specifically dedicated to tackling a backlog of Guardianship Reviews. This is a project-based role where you can truly see the impact of your work while benefiting from one of the highest pay rates currently available in the Scottish market.
Why Apply?
Premium Pay: A market-leading rate of £50.00 per hour.
Targeted Workload: Focus exclusively on Guardianship Reviews-ideal for those who enjoy the technical and statutory side of MHO work without the noise of a generic duty desk.
Flexibility: North Ayrshire offers supportive, hybrid working arrangements to help you balance the project with your lifestyle.
Immediate Impact: You will be directly responsible for reducing wait times and ensuring statutory compliance for vulnerable adults.
The Ideal Candidate
We are looking for practitioners who are "on it." While a fully experienced MHO is the gold standard for these roles, the service may consider those with significant Mental Health experience who have a deep understanding of the Adults with Incapacity (Scotland) Act.
Requirements:
Relevant Social Work qualification and MHO award (preferred).
Active registration with the SSSC.
Proven experience in completing high-quality statutory reports and reviews.
Ability to work independently and manage a project-style caseload.
How to Apply
With only two positions available at this premium rate, we expect a high volume of interest.
