Assistant Psychologist

We are excited to announce that we have been awarded funding from Health Education England to offer assistant psychologist positions to aspiring clinical psychologists. We are committed to increasing diversity in clinical psychology and therefore we particularly welcome applications from people from backgrounds that are currently under represented in the profession.

We are committed to supporting you on your journey to becoming a clinical psychologist. Supervision and wider professional support will be offered to all successful candidates. A specialised induction programme is also available and successful applicants will also be able to attend training that is offering at the Trust.

We will be offering a centralised recruitment process where candidates who are successfully shortlisted will be invited to a single interview. Successful candidates will then be offered a post based on their preferences.

Assistant psychologist role descriptions are described in detail in the Psychological Professions Assistant Psychologist Recruitment brochure. If you have a preference for one of the particular posts, please indicate this on your personal statement.
