Everybody's talking about Autism!

From documentaries, news stories, podcasts, tv-shows and novels, Autism has never been more high-profile, and discussions around neurodiversity have never been so wide-ranging and forward-thinking.

As public awareness has grown, so have the number of referrals into the Children's Autism Assessment Service, and our team has received additional funding to expand our administrative team to meet this demand.

This is an opportunity to be part of the evolving conversation around Autism by supporting the admin work of this dynamic team.

You'll work alongside therapists, nurses and doctors from a wide variety of clinical backgrounds, offering a diagnostic assessment pathway which has the needs of the individual child at its heart.

If you enjoy speaking to families on the phone, working as part of small admin team, and if you're IT-savvy and able, with support, to problem-solve, be flexible, use your own initiative and prioritise your workload, then this might be the role for you!
