Highgate Mental Health Centre, Dartmouth Park Hill N19 5NX

An opportunity has arisen to join our enthusiastic, experienced and dynamic teams as a Band 4 full time Assistant Psychologist, based in the inpatient Rehabilitation Service.

This job opportunity comes during an exciting year, when we will be preparing to move our inpatient wards to the new Highgate East wing, due to open in late 2023.
