Professionally, the post-holder will be part of a larger group of clinical psychologists within Psychological Health Services working within a variety of paediatric and adult specialties in this large acute Trust. We are a valued, well-established, and supportive service with a strong commitment to clinical supervision, continuing professional development, innovative service development, and research, with well-established links to clinical psychology training courses in the South West.

Core Purpose

To enhance the quality of psychological support for cleft families across the south west. To work in close collaboration with other providers of cleft services. To lead on the development, delivery, and evaluation of the service with the support of the consultant lead. To support the other staff support posts and deliver line management as required. To work in partnership with all key stakeholders.
