Band 8b Principal Practitioner Psychologist
University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust View all jobs
Posted 7 day(s) ago
Reference: 304-1101021
Job summary
Are you a compassionate and committed clinical psychologist who champions inclusivity and making healthcare more psychologically-informed?
An opportunity has arisen for a Principal Practitioner Psychologist to lead our Severe Asthma Psychology Service based at our Heartlands Hospital site.
The Birmingham Regional Severe Asthma Service is a specialist tertiary level service that offers an MDT approach to the management of severe asthma and related breathing conditions. Psychology is well respected in the service and provides direct clinical assessment and intervention to patients at an individual and group level, on an inpatient and outpatient basis. Psychology is well integrated into the MDT and inputs into specialist clinics, offers reflective practice and teaching and training to the team.
The role provides an exciting opportunity to collaborate with other psychologists working in asthma psychology nationally. You will be welcomed by asthma service colleagues who are keen to support in the continued development of the service, as well as being a valued colleague in our ever-growing and recently established Department of Psychological Services.
If you thrive on challenge, creativity and a dynamic and supportive work environment, along with the opportunity to develop and shape the future of the service, this is the job for you.
Please contact Lead for Clinical Health Psychology (Sahil Suleman) on 0121 3714455 or email sahil.suleman@uhb.nhs.uk for further queries/information.
Main duties of the job
You will ideally have experience of working in asthma and/or related physical health settings, but our principal aim is to recruit a psychologist with the right passion and skills to continue to lead and develop the service. In addition to providing expert clinical practice, this will include skills in delivering supervision and training to non-psychologists, as well as consultation and broader approaches to supporting psychologically-informed care within your MDT and the Trust.
You will need to be able to demonstrate a developed understanding of the psychological aspects of asthma and breathing conditions and how this may interact with pre-existing vulnerabilities and mental health. Having experience in working with trauma would be an advantage.
You will be a senior clinical leader responsible for the delivery, development, and strategic oversight of highly specialist psychological services, contributing to strategic service planning, transformation initiatives, and quality improvement programmes, influencing practice within asthma and more widely for trust-wide psychological services.
This post is 30 hours per week and is predominantly based at Heartlands Hospital, with some requirement of travel to other UHB sites.
