“The work I do contributes towards helping children and young people”

Clair is an admin support lead and project officer at Bournemouth CAMHS.

She splits her time between admin work and service improvement projects, supporting one of the team’s clinical psychologists.

In her admin role, Clair manages a busy team of back office staff, including receptionists and admin officers. She also supports the CAMHS managers in areas such as data reporting, targets and diary management. In addition, Clair is the health and wellbeing champion for Bournemouth CAMHS, a role that involves supporting and encouraging staff to look after their wellbeing.

‘Although I work in a back office role, my motivation comes from knowing that the work I do contributes to helping the children and young people who access our service,’ Clair explains. ‘That’s a really good feeling.’
