This can be a development post for a Band 7 or an 8a post to a candidate with the right experience.
We are looking to appoint an HCPC registered Clinical Psychologist to join our welcoming and psychologically minded team to provide a service of excellence for Older People within Hertfordshire. This post brings a diversity of experience, from providing specialist assessments and intervention, to supervising and supporting other members of the psychology team, and working closely with members of the wider multi-disciplinary team. We regularly offer placements to trainee clinical psychologists and the post holder will play a central role in offering supervision and working closely with the local university.
We also recognise the key that consultation can play in developing our services as a central part of our psychology offer. The ideal candidate will be someone who shares our values about offering compassionate and trauma-informed services, whether in the psychological therapies or the neuropsychological assessment aspect of the service. The ethos of the team is one of continuous quality improvement and co-producing what our clients require, and we are looking for candidates who share a passion for service development and innovation. We hope that candidates will bring skills and knowledge to support audit, research, and project development within the service.
