About the Role
We are excited to offer this unique opportunity to work across community stroke and neurorehabilitation team (CSNRT) and outpatient traumatic brain injury (TBI). This is a band 7/ 8a post and we would welcome applications from clinical psychologists with an interest in neuropsychology.
The role is made up of two parts:
- 0.65 WTE Salford Community Neurorehabilitation Service
- 0.35 WTE Salford Outpatient Traumatic Brain Injury Service
We would recruit at band 8a only if the candidate has completed and passed one academic year of the PGDip in Clinical Neuropsychology. If joining as a band 7, we would support the applicant to apply for NHSE funding to apply for the 1st year of the PGDip in Neuropsychology and we would support with study time during teaching blocks. Please note that whilst NHSE funding has been available in recent years, this is not guaranteed.
Responsibilities
This is a varied and interesting role for a diverse population, and within a supportive MDT and neuropsychology service. You will need to work autonomously and organise your workload, take initiative and cope with competing demands. You will be well-supported to do this by Clinical Neuropsychologists within the Trust and senior practitioners in the team.
