About the role

This is an exciting opportunity for a clinical academic in clinical psychology (Reader or Professor depending on qualifications, skills & experience) with strong research and clinical experience to lead the DClinPsy programme at the Department of Psychology at the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, King’s College London (IoPPN-KCL).

The DClinPsy Programme Director will report to the Head of Department and will work with the Dean of Education to provide strategic leadership and day-to-day oversight of the Programme.

The post-holder will have management responsibility for programme staff and trainees guided by KCL policies. They will directly line manage and appraise members of the DClinPsy programme team including the senior management team.

The post-holder will ensure that the Programme meets all necessary accreditation and quality assurance criteria, such as those relating to KCL, BPS, HCPC, NHS England and secondary accreditation bodies (BABCP and AFT). They will Chair the Training Programme Committee and meetings of senior management team and core programme staff.  They will represent the Programme at organisational level.
