We are looking for a highly motivated, well organised, and enthusiastic individual to join our busy multi-disciplinary neurodevelopmental assessment team working across Newcastle and Gateshead. You will work collaboratively with multidisciplinary team members including our other Assistant Psychologists, Clinical Psychologists, Community Nurses, Occupational Therapists, Support Workers and Psychiatrists contributing to the assessment of young people presenting with neurodevelopmental difficulties. You will also be part of a wider support network of psychologists who deliver psychological care within our mental health and learning disability teams. Maintaining links with these wider teams is encouraged and there are opportunities for peer support and CPD in this context.
You will be working in an environment where there is strong emphasis on teamwork and quality of clinical care. Our assessments provide thorough profiling of young people’s strengths, needs and difficulties helping to ensure that they have access to the most appropriate understanding and supports as they develop and grow. We are looking for applicants who value difference and who are able to help us place the young person and their family at the centre of every assessment.
It is expected that the post holder will contribute as needed to service development projects and research/audit activities that are taking place within the team. There will also be opportunities to engage in delivering teaching and training.
We aim to attract and retain a diverse, talented and committed workforce, who are caring and compassionate, and therefore able to meet the demands of the modern NHS now and in the future. In return we can offer a dynamic working environment in which to build a career.
As a service, we value the role of robust, supportive and effective supervision and you will have access to separate clinical and management supervision. We will expect the post holder to actively pursue their own continuous professional development and will support them to identify needs and progress in a meaningful way.
It is essential that applicants hold an Undergraduate Degree in Psychology (or equivalent as recognised by the BPS).
Please find attached job description for full details.
