We believe there is another way to cruise. A way that is based on five generations of seafaring.
Where cabins are called cabins and ships look like ships.
Where the journey is as important as the destination.
In our world, smaller is better, and we believe in keeping the experience on board uncrowded, warm and civilised - treating passengers as guests, like the family run business we are.
It would be easy to follow the trends and go with the crowds. But we never will.
Because this is our way. The Olsen Way

Our Values:
We are caring - “We trust and care for each other, our guests and our environment”
Always deliver a warm and friendly welcome, Always make time to listen, Look out for each other’s safety, security and well-being, Strive to help protect the environment for future generations.
We are positive - “We live and share a positive attitude”
Motivate each other with positive energy, Always see the opportunities in new ideas, Believe it’s better to learn than never try, Always look for ways to add value and make a difference.
We are real - “We are always ourselves and respect others”
Bring our real selves to work and perform, Respect and embrace all our different personalities and cultures, Have the courage to admit when we are wrong and have the strength to act on it, Have a voice and encourage open, honest communication.
We are a team - “We are more than a team; we are a family”
Share experiences and learn from each other, Adapt, respond and pull together to drive results, Together we recognise and celebrate our achievements.

The Role: What you will do?

As Counsellors, we are called to support and empower our clients. We equip individuals with the tools and autonomy they need to overcome challenges in their lives and safeguard their emotional health and wellbeing for the future. If you share our commitment to providing impactful, goal-focused support, come and join our team!

Getting to Know Us

Hello! We’re the EAP Helpline team at Vita Health Group. We work with clients who access our service through their employer / private medical insurer and help to find the right support for them, right there in that moment.

The work we do is a little different to sessional counselling, with a single-issue focus, designed to provide immediate support for each client we see. Working at a peripheral level, we can also provide a channel for clients to access ongoing support, through signposting and onward referral to our Brief Interventions team. The pace and variety of the work we do enables us to draw on all our counselling skills and provides exposure to a wide range of presentations, to develop our clinical knowledge.

As clinicians the work we do can be isolating, but whilst we may work from home, none of us work alone! Here at Vita, we are supported both personally and professionally by a close, connected team and strong clinical leadership. We share the challenges and the successes of our work together and create space for reflection and self-care. We take our development seriously, with high quality CPD, exceptional clinical supervision and ongoing training opportunities. There are also fantastic opportunities for career progression, because we are growing so quickly and we believe in developing talent from within, whenever we can.

If this sounds like the right fit for you, we can’t wait to welcome you on board!

Working Patterns

Hours between 30 and 37.5 per week (0.8 FTE – 1.0 FTE)

Getting to know you

This is role for passionate, dynamic clinicians who are looking to make a tangible difference to their client’s emotional health and wellbeing. Alongside this, you will also be able to demonstrate:

• Recognised Counselling Qualification (Level 4 or above)
• BACP Registered Membership or equivalent.
• (NCS Accredited Professional status is also accepted. Unfortunately, Individual and Student Membership cannot be accepted).
• Minimum 2 years or 200 hours post-graduate counselling experience.
• Awareness of and commitment to supporting and facilitating diversity and inclusion
• Experience of working with diverse client groups, delivering counselling remotely and using PHQ9 and GAD7 assessment tools would be great to see, alongside knowledge of using the Stepped Care model.
• An awareness of and commitment to supporting and facilitating diversity and inclusion
• Willingness to travel, which may include overnight stays on occasion, as and when required

Next Steps

• If successful after an initial screening call and interview, we will discuss and agree your shift pattern and contract.
• We will provide you with all the IT equipment needed, and check in with you prior to your start date to ensure you have everything you need
• You will receive a full 2 week induction, online and with others, which starts with a introduction from the service mangers and meeting some of your new colleagues
• We will then support you with “on the job” training to help you practice and use your telephone and IT skills. We have a team of seniors there to support you every step of the way.
