<h2>Job summary</h2>
  <p>A fantastic opportunity has arisen to join our compassionate and dynamic service to cover maternity leave.

These developments are providing excellent opportunities for career development, training, creativity, leadership and innovation for the right candidate!</p> <p>We are looking for someone with an interest in working with people living with eating disorders.

Specialist supervision will be provided.</p> <p>This is an excellent career development opportunity to further develop your specialist knowledge and skills in working with people living with eating disorders.</p>
