Overview
We are a small, specialist private clinic delivering adult ADHD and Autism assessments in line with NICE guidelines. As we prepare for registration with Healthcare Improvement Scotland (HIS), we are seeking a clinically qualified professional to join as our Clinical Lead, providing clinical governance, oversight of pathways, and leadership across service quality and compliance.
This is a stable 0.5 FTE leadership role suited to an experienced clinician who wants consistent governance and clinical leadership alongside other work. Our clinical and administrative SOPs are already written; the primary need is clinical oversight, governance leadership, and quality assurance to support HIS readiness and ongoing regulatory compliance.
Key Responsibilities
1) Clinical Governance & Quality Assurance
-
Lead clinical governance across ADHD and Autism assessment pathways
-
Maintain and improve clinical standards, documentation quality, and report consistency
-
Review and approve clinical templates, assessment processes, and clinical SOPs
-
Provide clinical oversight for diagnostic reasoning, risk processes, and safeguarding pathways
-
Support audit processes (documentation audits, outcome review, feedback trends, clinical risk)
2) Regulatory Support (HIS Readiness & Ongoing Compliance)
-
Support readiness for HIS registration and inspection processes
-
Ensure clinical governance aligns with HIS standards and evidence requirements
-
Contribute to maintaining key governance logs (incidents, complaints, safeguarding) and ensure learning/actions are followed through
-
Act as a senior clinical point of contact for compliance-related clinical queries (alongside operational admin support)
3) Clinical Team Leadership & Support
-
Provide clinical guidance to assessors and relevant team members
-
Participate in governance meetings and contribute to continuous service improvement
-
Support supervision structures and quality assurance activity (as appropriate to scope)
4) Clinical Service Delivery (If Applicable)
Depending on professional background and availability, there may be scope to contribute clinically:
-
Conduct ADHD and/or Autism assessments in line with NICE guidelines
-
If a Nurse Prescriber: deliver initial medication appointments and follow-up reviews
-
Provide clinical input into pathway development and multidisciplinary working
Essential Requirements
-
Current professional registration:
-
NMC (for Nurse Prescriber), or
-
HCPC (for Clinical Psychologist)
-
-
Strong experience in ADHD/Autism assessment and/or prescribing
-
Demonstrable clinical governance, leadership, or quality improvement experience
-
Understanding of regulatory compliance (HIS, CQC, or equivalent), particularly as it relates to clinical governance and inspection readiness
-
Strong diagnostic reasoning, documentation, and communication skills
-
Comfortable providing leadership within a small, specialist, remote team
Desirable (but not essential)
-
Experience in independent/private healthcare settings
-
Experience leading or formalising neurodevelopmental clinical pathways
-
Audit and inspection preparation experience
-
Proactive, solutions-focused approach with high attention to detail
Availability & Flexibility
-
Fractional role: 0.5 FTE
-
Remote working, with scheduling flexibility to fit alongside existing clinical or portfolio commitments
What We Offer
-
Stable, part-time clinical leadership role with flexibility around existing commitments
-
Opportunity to shape and lead clinical governance within an established neurodevelopmental clinic
-
SOPs and systems already in place — focus is leadership and quality, not building from scratch
-
Competitive pro-rata salary (£70,000 FTE)
-
Meaningful work supporting neurodivergent adults and their families
