Summary
This Band 5 Audiologist role offers a varied and rewarding clinical experience within the Hearing & Balance Service at Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust. You will work closely with Team Leaders, contributing to day-to-day service delivery while developing specialist skills in sub-specialist areas of audiology. The role combines routine and non-routine tasks, providing a dynamic and engaging working week across multiple clinical sites, including community clinics (Ear, Nose and Throat and Adult Hearing Aid Aftercare) and domiciliary visits. You will manage your own clinical caseload, provide hearing assessments, hearing aid fittings, hearing aid repair and maintenance and rehabilitation, and give support to junior staff and trainees. You will develop sub-specialist skills, such as basic tinnitus advice, and contribute to service improvement projects. You will be required to participate in training and education programmes, including trust mandatory training, all within a supportive, collaborative team culture. The role requires proficiency with audiology systems such as Practice Navigator or Auditbase, experience using hearing aid software, audiometry, tympanometry, and Real Ear Measurement equipment, and competence in standard IT systems such as Word, PowerPoint and Excel. You will work effectively both independently and as part of a multidisciplinary team, following policies and procedures relevant to your specialist area, department, and the Trust, and embodying the Leeds Way values and behaviours. You will contribute to aspects of service management, including performance monitoring, health and safety, stock control, monitoring and ordering processes, and ensuring patient safety and safeguarding standards are maintained. You will act as a positive role model for junior staff while gaining exposure to service workflows and departmental projects. You will support continuous service improvement through the audit cycle and play an active role in monthly team and staff meetings.
