Clinical Lead - CAMHS

Consultant Psychiatrist / Clinical Lead. Children’s Mental Health Service. Remote. Part-time. Some part-time senior roles are only part-time on paper. This one has been designed properly. I’m supporting an established private mental health provider with the appointment of a Consultant Psychiatrist / Clinical Lead for their children’s service. The current lead is retiring, so this is a planned replacement rather than a rushed gap fill. The service is looking for someone who can bring senior clinical judgement, maintain high standards, support governance, and help guide the next stage of the children’s pathway. The role is remote and expected to sit around 15-20 hours per week, with availability spread across the week rather than fixed into one full day. There is also flexibility to combine the leadership element with clinical associate work, if that suits. What makes it interesting: Established private mental health service. Children’s pathway with wider adult and family provision around it. Remote working. Part-time structure. Strong operational support. Scope to influence standards, governance and service development. Flexibility around the final structure for the right person. This would suit a Consultant Psychiatrist who enjoys clinical leadership but does not want a full-time executive post or a role buried in operational noise. You will need: GMC Specialist Registration. Consultant-level experience. Strong children and young people’s mental health experience. A long-term, quality-led approach. The ability to provide senior oversight, not just clinical delivery. Salary/rate is flexible, but expected to be competitive and broadly aligned to a £145,000-£160,000 FTE equivalent, depending on experience and final structure. If this sounds like a role worth discussing properly, message me directly and I’ll share more detail in confidence.

Neurodevelopmental Assessor

Neurodevelopmental Assessor – CYP & Adult ADHD / Autism £65 per hour | West Midlands | Clinic-based | Minimum 2 days per week If you enjoy neurodevelopmental assessment but want to be part of a clinical team rather than simply picking up individual assessments, this is a slightly different opportunity. We are supporting a neurodevelopmental service in the West Midlands looking for experienced clinicians to work face-to-face from clinic for a minimum of two days per week, assessing children, young people and adults across ADHD and autism pathways. This is not a per-assessment role. You will be paid £65 per hour and work as part of the wider clinical team, with regular capacity, MDT input and ongoing involvement in the pathway. The work will include: ADHD and autism diagnostic assessments across CYP and adult pathways. Developmental and clinical history taking, differential considerations and functional impact.

Working alongside the wider clinical team on complex presentations, safeguarding and onward recommendations. You will need appropriate professional registration and recent UK experience contributing to ADHD and/or autism diagnostic assessments. Experience across both conditions and age groups would be ideal, although clinicians with particularly strong experience in one pathway may still be considered. The important part is that you are comfortable working face-to-face in the West Midlands, can commit to at least two regular days each week, and want to work as part of the service rather than as a remote per-assessment clinician.
