We now have a great opportunity for an Orthotist to join our experienced team at Luton and Dunstable Hospital.

Ideally, you'll be an experienced Orthotist looking for a new challenge, or a Graduate looking to join an experienced team who will support your development.

Ideally, you'll have a minimum of 2years' post-graduate experience; more importantly, you'll be a forward-thinking clinician with a passion for delivering exceptional patient care, managing quality services and proactive in service development.

You must be degree qualified in Orthotics/Prosthetics (or equivalent) and be HCPC registered. BAPO or ISPO membership is desirable, though not essential.
