Principal Psychologist-specialist Weight Management

2 weeks ago


Glasgow, United Kingdom NHS Scotland Full time

NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde is one of the largest healthcare systems in the UK employing around 40,000 staff in a wide range of clinical and non-clinical professions and job roles. We deliver acute hospital, primary, community and mental health care services to a population of over 1.15 million and a wider population of 2.2 million when our regional and national services are included.

(Please note the salary is Pro Rata) for part time hours.

We are seeking to recruit a permanent, part-time Principal Psychologist to work within the Specialist Weight Management Service (SWMS), which offers a pathway of care for the treatment/management of severe obesity. As part of NHSGGCs weight management service model, the tier 3 SWMS comprises a multidisciplinary team (MDT) of specialist dietitians, physiotherapists, psychologists, a technical instructor, plus administrative staff. The SWMS MDT also work alongside bariatric surgeons and a specialist nurse in tier 4 as part of the assessment, preparation and support pathway for clients eligible for bariatric (weight loss) surgery.

From the conception of the service, the integration of psychologists has aimed to ensure that all patients benefit from having psychosocial approaches incorporated throughout their treatment journey (across both tiers 3 & 4). All clients who access the SWMS have some level of psychological provision ranging from the least intensive: cognitive-behavioural and motivational components incorporated within the standard weight management programme; to the most intensive: individual psychological assessment and therapy.

As an integral member of the team, your remit would cover the delivery of individual psychological assessment, individual therapy, as well group therapy to clients eligible for the SWMS lifestyle programme. You would provide specialist clinical supervision and training to MDT staff delivering psychologically-based interventions within the service, plus qualified, trainee or assistant psychologists when required. You will receive support and supervision from a Consultant Clinical Psychologist.
