We have an exciting opportunity for a clinical, counselling or health psychologist to work in a leading adult oncology and haematology service. The post holder will be closely supported by colleagues within an established and highly valued and supportive psychological health service.
You will have a wide range of direct clinical work covering all parts of the adult cancer pathway across different tumour sites and teams. You will be offered opportunities to contribute to the compassionate care of staff, through clinical supervision, as well as supporting our wide ranging training programme.
There are excellent facilities to support this role, with dedicated administrative support and clinical space within Bristol Haematology and Oncology Centre and Weston General Hospital. We offer a very supportive Psychological Health Services group across the Trust, with strong links to regional and national networks.
As a large department Psychological Health Services provides applied psychology services to a wide range of specialist multidisciplinary teams. Although the current recruitment is for a specific post, we welcome applications and enquiries from those who are interested in wider opportunities within our portfolio. As a way to support individual development, growth of expertise and service priorities, successful applicants may benefit from opportunities to work into other clinical areas through discussion and planning with their line manager and head of service.
The total hours currently available are 33.75 (0.9wte). If full time hours are desirable there may be opportunities to pick up additional hours on a fixed term basis in the family service and we may appoint more than one person.
This role covers the Bristol Haematology and Oncology Hospital (BHOC) and Weston General Hospital (WGH) and therefore requires the post holder to travel to both sites. The role requires availability on Tuesdays and Fridays, other days to be negotiated based on working patterns and sites. Candidates invited to interview will be asked to express their preference for working hours.
Interviews will be conducted on Wednesday 27th August.
