Are you passionate about improving the health and wellbeing of children and young people?
We are looking for a Dietitian to join our Paediatric Nutrition and Dietetic Service within NHS Tayside.
This is an exciting opportunity to join a supportive and forward-thinking team, with a key focus on providing specialist dietetic care to infants and young children with complex nutritional needs. The post holder will support children requiring nutritional monitoring, enteral feeding and specialist intervention during critical stages of growth and development.

We welcome applications from experienced Band 6 Paediatric Dietitians, as well as Band 5 Dietitians with relevant clinical experience and an interest in developing their paediatric skills.

This role offers the opportunity to develop specialist paediatric dietetic skills, contribute to service improvement and be part of a team committed to delivering high-quality nutritional care across NHS Tayside.
