## Job Content

### Job overview

PTHB is excited to recruit a Band 5 Community dietitian covering Brecon, Ystradgynlais and Bronllys and Llandrindod Wells.  Powys Dietetics team aims to deliver expert and flexible nutritional care to local community.  You could be a new graduate, or B5 seeking wider experience, and will have opportunity to manage a diverse clinical caseload covering inpatients, clinics, home enteral feeding, care homes and public health in an agreed job plan.  You will be well supported by committed and experienced colleagues and encouraged with structured development to prepare for advancement to B6 roles.  We encourage everyone to take an active part in clinical and service improvement, and opportunities for supervision and learning will be supported.

The ideal candidate will be enthusiastic, have a flexible approach and motivation, committed to ongoing CPD through our graduate preceptorship framework, and have a holistic MDT approach working within the British Dietetic Association Professional Code of conduct, Professional Standards of Practice, and the HCPC code of conduct.  They will demonstrate good communication and organizational skills, a positive attitude, and work collaboratively within a team.

Digital infrastructure is well developed in Powys to meet demand and success of remote consultation, though face to face contacts can be arranged as clinically appropriate.

We would particularly welcome applications from Welsh speakers; but even if you don’t speak any Welsh, or want to develop your skills, don’t worry: the health board will support you with training.
