Are you a Dietitian looking for a new challenge in a unique and rewarding clinical setting? Would you like to work autonomously while still feeling supported and connected to a wider team?
We are seeking an experienced and compassionate Band 7 Advanced Dietitian to join our Children & Adolescent MH (CAMHs) Inpatient Service on a part-time basis (0.4 WTE/15 hours).
You will lead the dietetic input across our general adolescent unit and secure forensic inpatient unit, supporting young people with complex mental and physical health needs on their recovery journey. This is a specialist and autonomous post where your expertise will directly shape care and outcomes.
As the lead Dietitian for CAMHS, you will provide specialist clinical input across a wide-ranging and rewarding caseload. Key areas include:
- Supporting patients who are underweight or at refeeding risk
- Delivering tailored weight management advice and interventions
- Providing diabetes education and dietary management
- Delivering individual dietetic assessments and group education sessions
You'll work collaboratively with the multidisciplinary team to deliver evidence based, person-centred care, and you'll be a visible advocate for the role of nutrition in mental health recovery in the CAMHS.
Although this is a standalone post, you won’t be working in isolation. You will have access to:
- Regular clinical supervision and line management
- Peer support and CPD opportunities via the wider GMMH dietetic network
- Study days, training, and leadership opportunities
This is a dynamic, rewarding role offering autonomy, development, and the chance to make a real impact in the lives of people facing complex challenges.
