CYP Clinical Psychologist ADHD Assessment Service
£60,000-£66,500 | West Midlands | Full-time
A good ADHD assessment should involve more than working through a checklist.
This role gives a Clinical Psychologist the space to bring formulation, developmental understanding, and differential thinking into a structured CYP ADHD pathway, working alongside a wider multidisciplinary team.
You would contribute to diagnostic decisions through psychological assessment, formulation, and clinical reasoning, with a clear emphasis on robust conclusions and useful communication for children, families, and referrers.
The service sits within a wider neurodevelopmental team, including psychology, nursing, SALT, OT, and medical colleagues, with senior clinical oversight and established governance structures around the pathway.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Why Consider It
- There is protected time built into the week for the work that often gets squeezed elsewhere.
- Around 1,822 hours for assessment and feedback.
- 810 hours for report writing and formulation.
- 35 hours for MDT work, supervision, governance, and audit.
- Separate time for liaison and administration.
Clinically, you will integrate developmental history, functional impact, school and family information, questionnaires, and previous records rather than looking at symptoms in isolation. You will also contribute to differential thinking, co-occurring presentations, and safeguarding where required.
The role also gives exposure to the wider neurodevelopmental pathway, including cases where ADHD and autism may overlap.
