Are you a Consultant Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist interested in delivering and developing ground-breaking and growing Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) in cultural and picturesque Oxfordshire?

We have a Consultant opportunity in our Getting More Help South CAMHS team. This Consultant post would be based within a well-resourced multidisciplinary team with very experienced fellow Consultants. As a Consultant, you will be responsible for supporting your team manager in ensuring that our service users’ needs are met through the delivery of high-quality care, offering a person-centred approach to their independence and well-being.  

You will have clinical leadership opportunities to develop services across the patch and medical education/supervision. You will also be part of a Trust wide Consultant network where there are opportunities to liaise with colleagues in other posts throughout the Trust and develop peer networks.

You will also see Consultant peers at regular division meetings in the locality and at clinical governance meetings. The Trust is committed to high quality teaching and training and we work closely with the Psychiatric Department of the University of Oxford.

With the changing circumstances of modern mental healthcare, the ability to adapt and demonstrate new ways of working is essential. You will have experience of working in CAMHS and have great interpersonal skills working with colleagues to work collaboratively with our team managers, and to provide leadership and clinical expertise to our highly skilled and committed multidisciplinary teams.

The appointed Consultant will provide senior medical input and clinical leadership to the Getting More Help South Team. The appointed Consultant will have responsibility for those patients seen by himself/herself, together with those patients seen by medical staff directly supervised by the post holder.

The appointed Consultant will assess new routine, urgent and emergency referrals from other agencies alongside other clinicians, provide consultation to non-medical clinicians and offer ongoing management for patients requiring longer term care.
