We're looking for a Senior Clinical Psychologist with HCPC registered or Doctorate in Clinical Psychology to join our Tier 3 weight management team at Oviva. This is a permanent, part-time role (16 hours weekly) with flexible working hours. Join us today to together make a real impact!

Why Oviva?
At Oviva, we’re on a mission to make sustainable, personalized, clinically effective care accessible to everyone and to deliver against our vision of becoming Europe’s leading AI-powered chronic care platform.
Our digital programmes support people living with weight related illnesses. While weight loss is a goal for many, our approach is about so much more: improving health, building confidence, and enhancing quality of life.
We’ve already supported over one million people across the UK, Switzerland, and Germany, with a shared service centre in Poland. Every conversation, coaching session, and line of code helps move us closer to a healthier future. Join us and be part of the team making that future possible.

The Role
Oviva has been commissioned to provide a specialist Tier 3 weight management service for people living with complex obesity. We are looking for a Senior Clinical Psychologist to join our psychology and dietetics teams.
This is a clinical leadership role designed for a practitioner who is passionate about coaching and quality. You will maintain your own caseload while acting as a clinical mentor for the wider team.

• Specialist Guidance: Support coaches with complex patient cases and participate in Tier 3 MDT and BED-7 risk meetings.

• Risk Assessment: Conduct Initial Consultations for patients with high BED scores, assessing risk and providing clinical expertise.

Driving Operational Efficiency

• Performance Reporting: Complete weekly/monthly utilization and PF% reports to provide insights into program improvements.

• Operational Leadership: Participate in Senior Coach working groups, act as a Duty Manager when required, and support CSMs with patient complaints.
