Why this role exists

PMDD is under-diagnosed, under-treated and badly served by generic mental health pathways. Women wait an average of twelve years for the diagnosis and are frequently treated for bipolar disorder in the meantime. We are building a dedicated pathway and need a clinician to own it rather than advise on it.

Who you would be looking after

Women with severe cyclical mood and physical symptoms, often previously treated as bipolar disorder or treatment-resistant depression.

A day in the diary

• Pathway design and protocol work, roughly half the role
• A clinical list of complex PMDD cases, roughly a third
• Supervision of the clinicians delivering the pathway
• Quarterly outcome review and content sign-off

What the work involves

• Design the assessment protocol, including prospective two-cycle symptom tracking
• Set treatment escalation from lifestyle and SSRIs through to hormonal options and referral
• Supervise the clinicians delivering the pathway and review outcomes quarterly
• Sign off the patient-facing content so what we publish matches what we practise

What we ask for

• Consultant-level psychiatry, gynaecology or GP background with real PMDD caseload experience
• Published, taught or built in this area before
• Willingness to state clearly what the evidence does not yet support

What you get

• Two or three days a week with genuine authority over the pathway
• Direct work with our clinical governance and content teams
• Named clinical lead credit on the pathway

What this pays, and why

NHS consultant pay runs £109,725 to £145,478 full-time in 2026. Our pro rata band is below that headline deliberately, because two or three days here is designed to sit alongside an NHS or private commitment rather than replace it.
