This could also be SOC 2212 (Specialist medical practitioners). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.

About the role
The Maudsley Medical Psychotherapy Service (MMPS)) offers psychological therapies for complex non-psychotic mental illness. These service users have symptoms of a severity, chronicity and/or complexity that have been insufficiently responsive to step 1 (IAPT) or step 2 (PCMHT) interventions or are considered to be unsuitable for these.
An increased focus on close working with other colleagues including referrers and psychological therapists based in neighbourhood teams is essential to reduce fragmentation of service input and provide the stable attachment figures required for treating these service users.
The consultant in this role will be responsible for assessment, flow, liaison with colleagues and supervision of treatments by resident doctors. They will also more generally support with service provision, governance and service development.
