Hull University Teaching Hospitals (HUTH) are seeking a Band 6 Specialist Bariatric Dietitian to join our diverse team. The post holder will gain experience working in a large busy acute teaching trust.

You will be expected to be an active member of the multi-disciplinary team and build social networks working in partnership with other agencies. Main duties of the job

You must be a registered dietitian with suitable previous experience working with complex patients and building links to community services. The role will require the post holder to undertake nutritional assessment and treatment of patients who may have highly complex and/or chronic presentations and work closely with other members of the ward multidisciplinary teams (MDT).

The dietetics department offers various development opportunities and can provide additional training. If you are looking for a challenging yet rewarding position, we would welcome your application. We are looking for suitably qualified and motivated individuals who have the drive, ambition, and positivity to make this role succeed. About us
