  • Demonstrate clinical leadership and represent the local service at relevant meetings to support service planning and development across the city.
  • Identify training needs within the team and deliver specialist training to colleagues and other professionals where appropriate.
  • Contribute to service quality improvement and promote safe, effective and equitable clinical practice.
  • Where delegated, support the management of waiting lists and active caseloads to help ensure equitable service delivery across Birmingham.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
