Senior Nurse Medical Prescriber & Clinical Specialist (B7-8a Dev Role)

The closing date is 20 March 2026

This is an exciting opportunity for a non-medical prescriber (nurse or pharmacist) who is keen to support the ADHD Pharmacological branch of the neurodevelopmental team within the children and young person’s service (ages 6-18 years).

The role could be either a Band 7-8a development role or an 8a role depending on experience.

The Neurodevelopmental Service opened its doors in 2022 and, as a service, we are keen to use the latest research and guidance to provide a high quality approach to supporting need, diagnostic assessments and medication support.

The post holder will work closely with the Consultant Nurse and general manager as the service continues to develop and evolve.

We welcome applications from Registered Nurses (Adult/Child/Mental health/Learning Disability) and Pharmacists.

The role involves supporting the development of the ADHD Pharmacological branch of the service whilst facilitating ADHD diagnostic assessments, ADHD medication initiations, titration, stabilisation, and review clinics. It also includes providing clinical guidance to young people and caregivers around meeting identified needs.

The role also involves utilising leadership skills to support the transformation of the service and staff development.

Surrey and Borders Partnership NHS Foundation Trust is the leading provider of health and social care services for people of all ages with mental ill-health and learning disabilities in Surrey and North East Hampshire. We also provide social care services for people with a learning disability in Croydon and ASD and ADHD assessment services in Hampshire.

We actively seek to engage people who use our services and our communities in improving the mental wellbeing of the local population. We work closely with other NHS and voluntary sector organisations who provide services and support people who use services and carers.
