This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in delivering high-quality adult Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) diagnostic assessments within a supportive multidisciplinary environment.

You will undertake comprehensive autism assessments, contribute to multidisciplinary team discussions, and provide person-centred care throughout the diagnostic pathway. The role offers the opportunity to work within an innovative, clinician-led service focused on improving access to neurodevelopmental assessments and delivering excellent patient outcomes.

Main duties of the job

About us
Vertis Health is a federation of general practices delivering high-quality NHS services across Worcestershire. We were founded by local primary care clinicians and are owned by the practices we serve. As a purpose-led limited company, the money we generate is reinvested into the local healthcare economy, helping to strengthen services, support innovation and improve patient care.

Our neurodevelopmental services are being built around clinical quality, meaningful outcomes and strong governance. You will join an organisation that understands NHS systems and values while giving experienced clinicians the opportunity to influence, develop and improve services.

Depending on the role, our benefits include access to the NHS Pension, structured learning and development, clinical leadership opportunities, career progression and genuine flexibility.

If you want to help build a clinically rigorous, compassionate and sustainable service, we would be pleased to hear from you.
