3 months ago


Edinburgh, United Kingdom NHS Lothian Full time

NHS Scotland is committed to encouraging equality and diversity among our workforce and eliminating unlawful discrimination. The aim is for our workforce to be truly representative and for each employee to feel respected and able to give their best. To this end, NHS Scotland welcomes applications from all sections of society.

We will fully support disabled candidates, and candidates with long-term conditions or who are neurodivergent by making reasonable adjustments to our recruitment policy and practices.

NHS LOTHIAN
THE ORCHARD CLINIC
ROYAL EDINBURGH HOSPITAL
EDINBURGH
SENIOR PRINCIPAL CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGIST Band 8B
1.0 WTE
Permanent

The successful applicant will work with the Professional Lead for Forensic Clinical Psychology/Head of Service for Complex Care in order to provide a high-quality specialist clinical and forensic psychology service to mentally disordered offenders subject to mental health legislation.

The post involves working with forensic patients within the Orchard Clinic medium secure unit and during follow-up to other services or the community. The service also has Regional and National commitments. This requires the provision of high-quality psychological assessment, treatment and evaluation in addition to providing specialist support and consultation to clinical teams, other professionals, criminal justice, and non-professional carers etc.

In addition, there is a need to provide teaching, supervision, consultancy and research expertise to Clinical Psychology trainees and other mental health professionals, and to contribute to the systematic governance of psychological practice within the service. In liaison with the Forensic Professional Lead there is a requirement to utilise high level research skills for audit, policy and service development as a major requirement of the job.

There is some flexibility to accommodate to the needs and interests of suitable candidates and the development of specialist areas of clinical and forensic expertise will be encouraged. There are close links with the East of Scotland Clinical Psychology Training course and other forensic services in Scotland and England.

We are aiming to hold interviews in August.

This post requires the post holder to have a PVG Scheme membership/ record. If the post holder is not a current PVG member for the required regulatory group (i.e. child and/or adult) then an application will need to be made to Disclosure Scotland and deemed satisfactory before they can begin in post.

The use of the term “Senior” or “Junior” in this post refers only to the level of experience and responsibility required for this post rather than age. As such, applications from people of all ages are welcomed, subject to meeting the relevant criteria.

NHS Scotland is reducing their full time working week from 37.5 to 37 hours per week from 1 April 2024 but with no change in pay. This reduction will also be applied pro rata for part time staff. This advert and any subsequent offer/contract of employment therefore reflects the new working hours. However, as not all service areas will be able to adopt the 37 hour working week immediately from 1 April 2024, you may be required to work up to an additional 30 minutes per week for a temporary period for which you would be paid until the service you are working in changes rosters or working patterns to accommodate the new reduced working week. If you have any questions or concerns please contact the Recruiting Board.
