About us
We are a growing specialist paediatric practice providing assessments and therapy services for children and young people aged 2-25 across Hampshire and surrounding areas.
We predominantly support neurodiverse children and young people, including autistic individuals and those with sensory needs, learning disabilities and other co-occurring conditions.
Working closely with families, schools and healthcare professionals, we are proud to deliver high-quality, child-centred support that makes a genuine difference.
The Role
We are looking to recruit a Band 6 or Band 7 Paediatric Occupational Therapist on either a salaried or associate basis.
This is a flexible role involving assessments and interventions across schools, homes, community settings and occasionally our clinic near Crondall, with much of the non-client-facing work able to be completed remotely.
Caseloads are typically managed within a 45-minute radius of your location.
Responsibilities
- Undertake Occupational Therapy assessments in community, school, clinic and home settings
- Deliver tailored therapy programmes and interventions for children and young people aged 2-25
- Produce high-quality reports, treatment plans and therapy recommendations
- Maintain accurate clinical records in line with HCPC and RCoT standards
- Support and advise parents, carers, schools and other professionals
- Contribute towards EHCP assessments and tribunal-related work where required
- Participate in clinical supervision, CPD and ongoing training
- Work collaboratively with multidisciplinary professionals and external agencies
- Support children and young people with sensory, self-regulation, motor and functional difficulties
