Applications are invited for the above fixed-term part-time (0.4) post working on the North Wales Clinical Psychology Programme, which is based within the School of Psychology and Sport Science. The programme has been established for over 30 years and has unconditional approval from the BPS and on-going accreditation from the HCPC.
The appointee will be joining an energetic and creative programme team at a time of expansion and new developments. You will work closely with the Clinical Director with specific responsibility for organising placements. You will be expected to act as a Training Co-ordinator for a number of trainees. The Programme enjoys excellent working relationships with the Local Health Board Clinical Psychology services.
The successful candidate will be appointed and employed directly by the University on the Grade 9 scale. Hours of work will be 40% FTE. The University will also consider an arrangement, whereby the successful applicant would remain employed by a current NHS employer on their existing employer's terms and conditions (up to the top of the 8b scale) and seconded to the University for the required FTE value. Such an arrangement would be at the discretion of the applicant's line manager and potential applicants are encouraged to discuss this with their line manager ahead of application. Whilst some aspects of the work remain online, the majority of team working is face-to-face.
The successful candidate will have DClinPsy (or equivalent) in Clinical Psychology, will be registered with the Health Care Professions Council as a practitioner psychologist and also be eligible for Chartered Clinical Psychologist status with the BPS.
The successful candidate will be expected to commence as soon as possible. The appointment is fixed term until July 2029.
