This is an exciting opportunity to join Whittington Health and contribute to the provision of a community pain service in Haringey. We are seeking an enthusiastic and skilled clinical or counselling psychologist with a keen interest in pain management to take on this role.The post holder will join a multidisciplinary pain team that includes Pain Consultants, Pain Psychologists, Advanced Practice Physiotherapists, Pain Management Physiotherapists, service manager and administrative staff. The post involves close working with MDT members to provide holistic care to treat persistent pain in a community setting so strong communication and team-working skills are essential. The post holder will ideally have some post-qualification clinical and consulting experience in the area of physical health care (including chronic health conditions) and with self-management groups. The successful candidate will be offering evidence-based pain psychology assessments and interventions for persistent pain patients.Whittington Health serves a richly diverse population and works hard to ensure that all our services are fair and equally accessible to everyone. Nowhere is this more obvious than in the way we look after our staff. We aim to employ a workforce which is as representative as possible of this population, so we are open to the value of differences in age, disability, gender, marital status, pregnancy and maternity, race, sexual orientation, and religion or belief. The Trust believes that as a public sector organisation we have an obligation to have recruitment, training, promotion and other formal employment policies and procedures that are sensitive to these differences. We think that by doing so, we are better able to treat our patients as well as being a better place to work.
