Job Description:

Professional Conduct Committee Lay Member

About the role

As a Professional Conduct Committee Lay Member, you will review case material for each complaint that falls within the scope of UKCP’s CCP in advance of meetings. You will attend PCC meetings to discuss and provide your reasoned analysis of each complaint. You will also be invited to review and comment on UKCP policies and guidance as appropriate.

The Professional Conduct Committee oversees concerns and complaints against registrants by the UKCP Complaints and Conduct Process (CCP). The role of the Professional Conduct Committee is to have oversight of the decisions made by UKCP Professional Standards Managers in accordance with the CCP and ensure that due process is followed.

The PCC is composed of a Lay Chair, and a mix of professional and lay members. We are seeking lay members to join our Professional Conduct Committee (PCC). By ‘lay’, we mean not UKCP members or employees, and not from a psychological profession.

Expected time commitment

Applicants will be expected to attend the scheduled meetings remotely. One or a maximum of two meetings may take place in person in London. This role is an unpaid volunteer position. Any reasonable expenses would be in line with the UKCP Expenses Policy.

1. Have a real passion and desire to enhance the provision of mental health services in the UK
2. The ability to analyse large amounts of complex information
