Detailed job description and main responsibilities

The post is advertised as a Band 8a. However, applicants who do not currently meet all the skills and competencies for the Band 8a role, are encouraged to apply and, if successful, will be appointed under Agenda for Change Arrangement for Pay and Banding of Trainees (Annex 21) supported by a development plan for 2 years. The application of Annex 21 with pay protection at Band 7 may be considered for newly qualified psychologists until competencies are met for 8a, which will be expected to be met within 2 years. Following successful completion and successful attainment of skills and competences for the role, the post holder will then be paid at Band 8a (minimum point on the scale). Continued support and supervision will be provided in order to develop the practitioner to the Band 8a role. This will be an excellent opportunity for a newly qualified psychologist looking for career development.
