• GMC-registered Doctor with a minimum of 2 years’ post-registration experience (FY2 or above) .
• Strong communication and report-writing skills .
• Ability to work towards individual and team goals within a supportive environment.
• Broad medical knowledge, with experience managing a range of physical and mental health conditions .
