An exciting and rewarding opportunity for a part-time Assistant Psychology role. The M3 programme is an NIHR- funded programme aiming to develop and test a multi-factorial intervention in adults with early-onset type 2 diabetes (aged 16-40 years). The successful applicant will be based at the Leicester Diabetes Centre.
The role will involve working closely with Clinical and Chartered Psychologists to contribute to the delivery of psychology alongside a full MDT. This role will be part of the delivery of a holistic and person-centered intervention, part of a wider research programme, the M3 programme.
Our new strategy, developed with the support and feedback of colleagues, patients, and partners, is our compass for the next seven years (2023-2030).
We have four primary goals:
• high-quality care for all,
• being a great place to work,
• partnerships for impact, and
• research and education excellence
And we will embed health equality in all we do - taking active steps to reduce the avoidable differences in healthcare that some people face, working in partnership with communities.
Our strategy is underpinned by new values and we will work to ensure they are an everyday reality for all:
• we are compassionate,
• we are proud,
• we are inclusive, and
• we are one team
This is an exciting moment as we look to the future with clarity on what we already do well and where we need to focus our energies to make an even bigger difference for the people we serve.
