Clinical Work and Opportunities
The role offers opportunities to undertake a wide range of clinical work, including multidisciplinary assessments, neurodevelopmental assessments (Autism/ADHD), psychological assessments and cognitive assessments.

These pathways provide valuable opportunities for developing specialist expertise alongside delivering high-quality general clinical work.
