Our department is committed to student training, quality improvement, research and audit. We pride ourselves on our commitment to continuing professional development. All Band 6 staff are led and supervised by a Band 7 or Band 8 Advanced Specialist Dietitian. 

We are part of the University Hospitals Bristol and Weston NHS Foundation Trust (UHBW). Bristol is a fantastic city to live and work in and full of opportunities, with great travel links across the UK and beyond.

You ideally should have at least one-year’s paediatric experience or have a good grounding in dietetics. However, we will also consider experienced adult Dietitians who have a passion to learn paediatrics within a tertiary unit. You must be enthusiastic and flexible. Additionally, you must be a good communicator and team worker who can self-direct your learning quickly. You should be computer literate.

If you are looking for a part-time post rather than full-time, there may be scope to provide this. Please get in touch to discuss.

Interviews will be held virtually on Wednesday 29th of May; however please do contact us if you would like to arrange an informal visit to the hospital.

For informal enquiries, please contact: Shelley Wills (Paediatric Renal Dietitian)
