School Counsellor (1 day per week, term time only)
Required from September 2026
School Counsellor
(1 day per week, term time only)
At Roedean, we are dedicated to providing a world-class education that inspires and empowers girls aged 11-18 to achieve their full potential. Our stunning cliff-top location overlooking the sea, combined with our rich heritage and commitment to academic excellence, makes Roedean a truly unique and inspiring place to learn and work. We are proud of our inclusive and supportive community where every student is encouraged to pursue their passions and develop the skills they need for future success.
We are seeking an experienced and well qualified Counsellor (BACP Accredited or equivalent) to provide a high quality counselling service to pupils experiencing a wide range of emotional problems. Experience of working with young people is essential. Experience in the education sector and/or supporting students for whom English is an additional language, including those from minority ethnic backgrounds would be an advantage.
We welcome your interest in being part of our journey at a time of continued development.
Roedean is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Applicants will be required to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS).
The post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. The School is therefore permitted to ask job applicants to declare all convictions and cautions on a self-declaration form in advance of attending an interview (including those which are "spent" unless they are "protected" under the DBS filtering rules) in order to assess their suitability to work with children.
Applications should be made via the My New Term Application Form. This can be found by clicking the ‘Apply Now’ button on our website (www.roedean.co.uk/Vacancies). Please note we do not accept CVs.
Closing date: 9am, 1 June 2026.
Due to the need to appoint quickly we reserve the right to interview and appoint at any time.
