Job description

Are you an Occupational Therapist with experience working with Autistic People with additional needs?

Does working 4 days a week but with FULL pay sound like a dream?!*

It doesn't have to be! Have a better work/life balance and come and work for Outcomes First Group!

Join Outcomes First Group and you'll get job satisfaction, the work life balance you deserve and up to £2000 to spend on CPD.

Job Title: Occupational Therapist

Location: Papworth Hall School, Cambridgeshire

Salary: £28,000 - £37,000 per annum (dependent on experience)

Hours: 37.5 hours per week, Monday to Friday, 8.30am - 4.30pm

Contract: Permanent, 52 weeks per annum

Essential: Full UK Driving Licence and access to own vehicle required

We're looking for a newly qualified Occupational Therapist or an Occupational Therapist near the start of their career, to join our expanding team. Holding responsibility within specialist services, you will contribute to bespoke assessment and intervention plans for the people we support.

About the role

For newly qualified Occupational Therapists, you will be required to work under supervision while completing your preceptorship year. However, following competencies being signed off by your supervisor, you will be able to work more independently within the team. As a registered practitioner you are personally responsible for your professional practice and maintenance of CPD. You will work closely with your supervisor to create a responsive service in the schools/care homes where you work, and to ensure that wherever possible evidence-based practice is delivered in line with OFG policies and guidelines. As part of the multi-disciplinary team, you will assess and treat individuals within the service, delivering meaningful activity within an individual and group environment. You will be required to do screening and assessment as required, with report writing being supported by your supervisor initially. You may work with an occupational therapy assistant on site to deliver intervention programmes. You may also be required on occasion to support with service provision for other nearby sites.

Who are we looking for? We are looking for a practitioner who has a clear vision of what outstanding therapeutic services look like. You would need to demonstrate drive, motivation and resilience, and ability to work with multi-disciplinary teams and build consensus.
