Job Description
NHS Scotland is committed to encouraging equality and diversity among our workforce and eliminating unlawful discrimination. The aim is for our workforce to be truly representative and for each employee to feel respected and able to give their best. To this end, NHS Scotland welcomes applications from all sections of society.
You will work within the Children’s Speech and Language Therapy service to support children with a wide range of speech, language, and communication problems, including those with formal Additional Support for Learning plans. You will be based in Angus but will be required to work flexibly across NHS Tayside in schools and community settings, as well as in health settings. You must be willing to travel between a number of sites.
You will bring knowledge and skills in working with young children and an understanding of disability and how to support children with additional needs and their families. You will also be working in universal and targeted models to support attainment in nurseries and schools. The work is wide-ranging and includes joint work with partners in other agencies. You will join a supportive team where professional development is supported and encouraged. All newly qualified therapists are supported to complete the Flying Start programme.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
