Summary
If you do not yet meet the criteria for the band 8a role, we will support applications from candidates that meet the criteria for the band 7 role and job description (please see additional documents on NHS jobs). In these instances, the successful candidate would be appointed to a Development Post role at band 7 and provided opportunities and support to progress to the band 8a role upon successful completion of a preceptorship programme. It is expected that this process will be achievable within a period of up to two years, although timescales may vary between different staff members in Development Posts. In the event that elements of the expected competencies to progress to 8a are not fully met, the role will remain as a band 7. This will be further discussed as part of the interview and recruitment process as appropriate. Applications from newly qualified/soon to qualify clinicians are therefore welcomed. Flexible working arrangements are possible in discussion with the teams operational manager.
