BAND 5 OR BAND 6 ACUTE AND RENAL DIETITIAN (DEPENDING ON EXPERIENCE)

Fast-Track Band 6 development an option

We have a fantastic opportunity for a motivated and enthusiastic dietitian to join our Adult Acute Dietetic Team.  We are open to applications from dietitians that are pre-registration, students or just starting their dietetics career, however, some experience of working within the NHS and the hospital setting would be an advantage.  Furthermore, within this role there is an opportunity for fast-track development to Band 6 once the agreed competencies have been achieved.  We also welcome applications if you are already working within renal as there is a possibility to move straight into a Band 6 position.

We are a small and friendly team that includes a range of dietitians from senior to newly qualified, dietetic assistants and secretarial support.  Professional development is encouraged and supported through supervision and objective setting.  You will be allocated time for studying and shadowing experienced senior dietitians.
