HCPC Registered Band 6 Podiatrist
We are looking for an enthusiastic and experienced HCPC registered Band 6 Podiatrist to join our friendly Community Podiatry Team covering the West Lancashire patch on a 9 month Fixed term basis within Mersycare. This is an exciting opportunity to work across a range of community clinic locations helping us deliver high-quality, person-centred care closer to home.
You will work with patients in clinic settings and in their own homes, including nursing and residential homes, providing assessment, treatment and ongoing management for people with a wide range of podiatric needs. The role offers the chance to build strong multidisciplinary relationships across neighbourhood services and make a visible difference to the health and wellbeing of the local population.
This post is ideally suited to a podiatrist with post-registration experience who is confident working both independently and as part of a supportive team, and who is committed to delivering high standards of clinical care.
You will assess, diagnose, plan and deliver treatment for patients with a range of complex needs, including people living with long-term conditions and those requiring wound management. We are therefore looking for someone with strong clinical reasoning, excellent communication skills and a compassionate, proactive approach to care. In return, you will join a service that values professional development, collaborative working and continuous improvement.

The post holder will manage a defined caseload and take responsibility for the assessment, planning, delivery and review of care for patients with acute and chronic complex podiatry needs. You will work autonomously, using evidence-based clinical decision-making to provide proactive, responsive care that supports both anticipatory and ongoing maintenance needs. The role involves building effective communication with patients, carers, colleagues and wider stakeholders to ensure continuity of care, identifying and managing risk within agreed guidelines, and contributing to service quality, audit and improvement within the team.
