A leading provider of specialist learning disability services is now looking for a dedicated Occupational Therapist to join the team at their residential village, where adults who have learning disabilities, often alongside ASD and other complex needs, are supported to live independently and stay engaged with the community on their own terms.

  • Free on-site parking
  • Flexibility within working arrangements
  • Extensive CPD, supervision and training opportunities
  • Opportunities to build your personal published portfolio
  • 35 days’ annual leave (inclusive of bank holidays)
