Why This Role Matters Waiting lists for neurodiversity assessments in the UK are long - often years. For autistic people and those with ADHD, that wait is not just frustrating. It affects education, employment, relationships, and mental health. At Spectrum.Life, we are building a digital-first neurodiversity multi-disciplinary assessment service that is clinically rigorous, neuroaffirmative in its values, and genuinely accessible. We are looking for a Practitioner Psychologist who shares that commitment - someone who brings both the specialist technical competence this work demands and a genuine belief in the difference that timely, high-quality identification can make to a person's life. This is a fully remote, multidisciplinary role. You will be part of a team of psychologists, Speech and Language Therapists, and Occupational Therapists, working together to deliver integrated, person-centred assessments for children aged seven and above and adults. The Neurodiversity Assessment Service Spectrum.Life's Neurodiversity Assessment Service delivers high-quality Autism, ADHD, and combined AuDHD identification assessments for children (aged seven and above) and adults, fully remotely via virtual platforms. All assessments are conducted in line with NICE guidelines and within DSM-5 and ICD-11 diagnostic frameworks. Our approach is neuroaffirmative throughout - from the way we conduct initial consultations to the language we use in our reports and feedback sessions. We work from a strengths-based, person-centred model that respects individual identity and lived experience. This is a growing service, and you will have the opportunity to contribute directly to its development - including service design, quality improvement, and the way we use digital platforms to make assessments more accessible. Your Multidisciplinary Team Neurodiversity assessment is inherently multidisciplinary, and we have built the service to reflect that. You will not be assessing in isolation. Your MDT includes Practitioner Psychologists, Speech and Language Therapists, and Occupational Therapists. Each assessment integrates perspectives across all three disciplines, and integrated formulation is a core part of how we work - not an add-on. How the MDT works day to day Regular MDT formulation meetings where complex and combined presentations are discussed collaboratively across psychology, SLT, and OT Shared formulation on all assessments - your psychological assessment report is integrated with SLT and OT findings before the final report is produced A designated Clinical Manager who provides operational oversight and is available for clinical consultation Monthly individual clinical supervision from a specialist in neurodiversity - provided by an experienced senior clinician with specialist neurodiversity expertise , not generic CPD supervision Peer consultation and shared learning across the psychology team Clear safeguarding and escalation pathways, with governance support for complex or high-risk presentations This is a 32-hour per week permanent part-time role. We will discuss and agree your specific working pattern during the offer process - we want to find a schedule that works for you within the needs of the service. The role is fully remote. All assessments and MDT meetings are conducted virtually. You will need access to a private, confidential workspace and a reliable internet connection.
