The Assistant Psychologist supports psychologists and multidisciplinary teams in delivering assessment, therapeutic and rehabilitation services. Requirements usually include a psychology degree accredited by the British Psychological Society, relevant experience in mental health or healthcare, strong communication and organisational skills, and the ability to work sensitively with patients and families. Candidates are expected to assist with psychological assessments, maintain accurate clinical records, contribute to treatment planning, collect and analyse service data, and participate in clinical supervision. The role also requires confidentiality, professional boundaries, safeguarding awareness, and a commitment to equality, inclusion and NHS values. Experience with clinical research, audit or psychological interventions is desirable.
University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (UCLH) is a major NHS teaching and research trust based in central London. It provides specialist and complex care across hospitals including University College Hospital, the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, and the Royal National ENT and Eastman Dental Hospitals. UCLH works closely with University College London and is recognised for clinical excellence, innovation, medical education and research. Its services cover a wide range of specialties, including cancer care, neurosciences, women’s health, cardiology, critical care and mental health. The trust employs a large multidisciplinary workforce and promotes compassionate care, continuous improvement, equality and professional development. Staff benefit from working in a highly diverse environment with access to extensive NHS training, supervision and career progression opportunities.
The United Kingdom offers extensive opportunities in healthcare, technology, education, finance, engineering and skilled trades, with London providing particularly strong employment prospects. British culture is diverse and generally values punctuality, privacy, politeness and work-life balance. Lifestyle options range from busy cities and cultural events to quieter coastal and countryside communities. Living costs are highest in London and the southeast, while many northern and Welsh regions are more affordable. Overseas workers usually need an appropriate visa, such as the Skilled Worker visa, and must meet sponsorship, salary and English-language requirements; healthcare professionals may have additional registration obligations. Before relocating, check NHS sponsorship availability, professional registration, accommodation costs, tax, healthcare access and transport. The UK has excellent public transport, but housing competition can be significant in major cities.
