Advanced Audiologist / Team Lead

The postholder will be expected to lead on the staff audiology team's clinical education programmed as well as research. An innovative, dynamic multi-tasker with an eye for detail is therefore the ideal candidate.
Your clinical work will be paediatric focussed but there will be the opportunity to practice in other areas to maintain your skills, such as advanced adult work e.g. advanced diagnostics, vestibular, electrophysiology and/or adults with additional needs.

A rare opportunity has arisen for a team lead in a busy specialist audiology department to cover a secondment for 23 months as team lead for audiology staff education and research in a large department within a fast-paced environment. If you have a passion for service excellence and enjoy a challenge as well as variety in your day, this is the ideal opportunity for you.
