Are you looking to be part of a friendly, dynamic Occupational Therapy team for children and young people? Would you like to belong to a team committed to developing innovative ways of working and encouraging personal and professional development? If so, we have a post for you. This post is for a Band 6 Occupational Therapist.

You will provide a comprehensive occupational therapy service within a range of children from 0 – 18 years old, working collaboratively with families and partner agencies to achieve the best outcomes for our CYPs. Prevention and early intervention is a high priority with a focus on skill sharing and tailoring support according to the needs of individuals and their families. The service is fully aligned to Ready to Act with offers at universal, targeted and individualised care (specialist) committed to delivering support at each level.

Ongoing support and training is available through your individualised job plan. Operational, Professional and Clinical supervision are key aspects of the service and you would have an Annual Development Review.

Our main base is at The Willows, Dumfries. You would be based within the Oak Tree Centre which is a purposely redesigned multi-disciplinary Children and Family's Centre. However, you can work in a variety of locations across the community and therefore must be able to travel independently.

Dumfries and Galloway is situated in the beautiful South West of Scotland with spectacular countryside, wide ranging leisure facilities, excellent schools and affordable housing. There are easy travel links to all the major cities in Scotland, North England and Northern Ireland.
