Join Us at The Centre for ADHD Research and Excellence: Shaping the Future of Accessible Healthcare

At Care ADHD Under 18’s services (part of The Centre for ADHD Research & Excellence), we’re revolutionising Neurodevelopmental care by making assessments and treatment more accessible for everyone. With an established Adult Pathway already in place, we were excited to extend our services to Children and Young People (CYP) in early 2026. With a mission rooted in compassion, we’re building a service that puts children and young people at the heart of everything we do.

We have an ongoing commitment to a person-centred approach, guided by lean methodology and a focus on innovation and continuous improvement. Together, these principles drive our pursuit of excellence and ensure that every individual receives the highest standard of care.

What we are looking for?

We are looking for a dedicated and meticulous Full-Time CYP ADHD Prescriber to join our dynamic team. This is a unique opportunity to join an expanding service right at the start of its development - with the security of an already successful and rapidly scaling adult service behind it. We’re a passionate team of changemakers, committed to a culture built on transparency, support, and continuous growth. We are solution seekers, and we work hard to safeguard the respectful and supportive culture that makes The Centre for ADHD Research & Excellence (Care ADHD) a great place to grow and thrive.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Respond to Clinical Enquiries: Prioritise and manage clinical enquiries from healthcare professionals, Under 18 clinicians, CYPs and their guardians, providing timely, evidence-based advice on medication management, treatment options, and drug interactions.
• Triage Medication Requests: Review and assess requests for ADHD medication to ensure they are clinically appropriate and safe, escalating complex or high-risk cases, through MDTs and Senior Leaders.
• Support ADHD Treatment Pathway: Provide clinical support to children and young people undergoing titration or maintenance treatment, responding to queries, monitoring for adverse effects, and ensuring timely intervention when concerns arise.
• Respond to Operational Clinical Enquiries: Support the wider Under 18s team across Client Success and Clinical Care Hub, by responding to operational clinical queries that impact patient progression through the care pathway, working collaboratively to ensure seamless and timely care.
• Prescription Management: Issue ongoing prescriptions for children and young people who remain under the care of the Care ADHDs under 18s service, including those for whom shared care has been declined. Ensure prescribing aligns with individual treatment plans and current clinical guidance.
• Physical Health Monitoring: Review physical health questionnaires throughout a patient’s treatment journey and escalate concerns if appropriate. Liaise with wider health professionals if indicated to provide holistic support and ensure safe care and treatment.
