Main duties of the job

The postholder will be part of a valued and established Adult Neuropsychology Consultation service in NELFT which offers specialist neuropsychological assessment, consultation and advice to teams in both community health and mental health pathways in the Trust.

Supervision would be from a Consultant Clinical Neuropsychologist and candidates who have not yet completed their post-doctoral neuropsychology training and gained entry to the Specialist Register of Clinical Neuropsychologists (SRCN) would be encouraged and supported to do so.
