Join Our Growing Clinical Workforce
As part of our continued growth, Psychiatry UK is expanding its Children and Young People (CYP) Neurodevelopmental Service through Right to Choose in Autumn 2026. To support this exciting expansion, we are building a new workforce of experienced clinicians and are seeking multiple ADOS Assessors to join our growing multidisciplinary team on a self-employed contractor basis.
Building on our extensive experience in neurodevelopmental assessment and care, this service has been designed to deliver high-quality, safe and clinically robust assessments in line with national guidance and best practice standards.
As demand for timely ADHD and Autism assessments continues to increase, this expansion will help improve access to care for children, young people and their families across the UK.
We are inviting applications from suitably qualified clinicians who are interested in becoming part of a growing national network of professionals delivering high-quality autism assessments remotely. Whether you are looking to supplement your existing practice or increase your independent clinical workload, we offer the opportunity to join a well-established and supportive service as part of a wider workforce expansion programme.
As a self-employed ADOS Assessor (CYP Service) with Psychiatry UK , you will play a key role in delivering high-quality autism diagnostic assessments for children and young people using ADOS and related assessment tools where appropriate. Working collaboratively within a multidisciplinary team (MDT), you will contribute to diagnostic formulation, clinical decision-making, and comprehensive written reports, while applying your expertise to support the delivery of evidence-based, patient-centred assessment and care.
You'll have access to diverse referral sources, enabling you to work with a broad patient population. Our streamlined payment system ensures efficiency and ease in financial transactions. To maintain high standards of care, we provide robust quality assurance through feedback systems designed to enhance both patient satisfaction and practice quality. Safeguarding and well-being are priorities, with dedicated support available for related concerns. You'll also benefit from a secure online workspace, including pre-configured equipment to ensure seamless integration into our systems.
