ABOUT US

At Edge Hill University we believe in the life changing opportunities knowledge can create. Since 1885, we’ve been creating access to knowledge for those who may not have had the opportunity to before.
Today, the effect we have has a far-reaching impact, not just for those who come to study here but for those who work, invest in, and live in our local communities too. So, if you’ve ever wondered if one person can make a difference, simply speak to our alumni, students, and award-winning staff. Because for us education isn’t about how much you take in. It’s about what you take out into the world.
Inspiring minds and changing futures since 1885, Edge Hill University is “A great success story… an institution that improves and impresses year after year” – Times Higher Education.

This is an exciting opportunity for a Wellbeing Practitioner to join the Counselling and Wellbeing Team providing front line wellbeing support for students, supporting ongoing service development and empowering students to succeed.
Using a high level of clinical skill, you will undertake needs assessments with students, ensuring students receive appropriate advice and guidance to support their mental health and wellbeing. You will frequently assess, contain, and manage risk, and will effectively coordinate responses to complex incidents and crisis situations in accordance with legislation, policy, and best practice.
