At the NHS, we are reminded every day of how important life is. As a flexible working friendly organisation, we want to be sure that you can work in a way that is best for us and for our patients, and for you. Speak to us about how we might be able to accommodate a flexible working arrangement whether that’s job share, part time or another flexible pattern. In addition, although the role advertised may have a ‘home’ office base indicated, we remain committed to supporting flexibility around workplace locations. If it works for the service, we will do our best to make it work for you.

You will be part of a friendly and supportive multidisciplinary team which includes paediatrics, nursing, systemic family therapy, psychology, and other therapists. Cornwall CYPED is an innovative service as recognised across our region. Innovations include our physical monitoring service, parent group, Bulimia pathway and collaboration with our local Adolescent Unit in developing eating disorder pathways. Team members are national trainers for the BEAT charity. All the above have helped us secure funding that will nearly double the size of our therapy team in 2021/22. There will be further innovations, including service developments for ARFID and day care provision for Anorexia Nervosa. You will be a key player in continuing to shape the service.

As a Trust, we want our doctors to work at their full potential. For this reason, we are offering new appointees the chance to extend their development. If you want to undertake a further qualification, undertake research or involve yourself in our transformation, we are happy to consider a flexible SPA offer above the standard 2.5 SPAs to enable study, such as:

• MBA
• Leadership development
• Psychotherapy qualifications
• PGCE
• Research

You will also be part of a Trust wide consultant network where there are frequent opportunities to liaise with colleagues. Cornwall Partnership Trust is committed to and values its medical workforce.
