Description

B- B8 PRECEPTORSHIP OPPORTUNITY AVAILABLE

Role Summary:


We currently very excited to be recruiting the equivalent of 2.7 WTE 8a (or band 7 preceptorship into 8a) Highly Specialist Clinical Psychologists.

This is an exciting opportunity to either take a post exclusively in core CAMHS, exclusively in FITS, or to work in a split post across both services supporting the development of your generic and specialist skills alongside our well established team of 8 psychologists and other multi-disciplinary team members.


FITS is a multi-disciplinary CAMHS team embedded within Children's Social Care with an emphasis currently on training and consultation to promote trauma informed practice across the workforce.

We are looking for a highly specialist clinical psychologist with experience of working in a CAMHS setting to join our team.

The role within core CAMHS will include direct clinical work with children, young people and families, consultation, training, supervision of other staff.

There will be an opportunity to develop your own therapeutic skills with access to quality training and clinical supervision as part of the role.


We would be keen to hear from applicants interested in a preceptorship post starting on a band 7 with a move to a permanent 8a post after a period of experience and development.

This would suit newly or recently qualified clinical psychologists. We would also love to hear from those looking for 8a posts as well.
