We are a supportive and well-established Educational Psychology Service based in a beautiful location in North Wales. Our team is highly valued by schools, families, the wider ALN service, and colleagues across partner agencies. We have strong representation at both strategic and multi-agency levels, contributing meaningfully to service development and decision-making.
We are seeking to appoint a permanent Senior Educational Psychologist to support our ongoing development. The service leads the Autism Outreach Service and Specialist Learning Support Service, and jointly coordinates the Specialist Speech and Language Disorder Team alongside Health colleagues. We also deliver a well-established ELSA programme and provide supervision across our schools.
As a service, we work collaboratively to ensure our offer remains responsive to the evolving needs of the communities we serve. We are committed to continuous development, adapting to shifting priorities and emerging needs. This is strengthened by the positive relationships we have built with schools and our strong, integrated approach to partnership working across services.
We welcome expressions of interest from experienced Educational Psychologists who are keen to develop areas of specialism and are committed to contributing to a knowledgeable, supportive, and forward-thinking team.
This role offers flexible working options for a work life balance. This can include adjusting your working day and hybrid working, ie a balance of office and home working.
