An exciting opportunity has arisen to join our innovative and expanding Adult Eating Disorders Service (AEDS) as an Occupational Therapist within a specialist multidisciplinary team.
We are seeking a motivated and compassionate clinician to deliver high-quality, evidence-based assessment, intervention and consultation for adults experiencing eating disorders. This is an exciting time to join the service as our Occupational Therapy pathway continues to evolve, offering a unique opportunity to contribute to service development, innovation and quality improvement alongside our Highly Specialist Occupational Therapist.
Our Occupational Therapy practice is underpinned by the Model of Human Occupation (MOHO), providing a strong occupation-focused framework for assessment, intervention and clinical reasoning. We are also strengthening the integration of occupational science, neuroscience and evidence-based practice to ensure contemporary, recovery-focused care.
As part of a supportive Occupational Therapy leadership structure, you will benefit from:
- Regular professional and clinical supervision
- Access to specialist eating disorder training
- Professional development opportunities
- Communities of practice
- Leadership and quality improvement initiatives
- Profession-specific CPD events
- Opportunities to contribute to service development, research and innovation
This role is ideal for an Occupational Therapist who is passionate about enabling people to reconnect with meaningful occupations, supporting recovery, and developing specialist skills within eating disorders. If you are looking for a role where you can make a meaningful difference while helping shape the future delivery of Occupational Therapy within an ambitious and evolving service, we would love to hear from you.
