We’re looking for an OT who’s ready to grow their skills, build their professional network and develop their career within our specialist paediatric team in Hillingdon.
🎓 This is perfect for newly qualified OTs who want to become the leaders of tomorrow and will benefit from our Trustwide career development initiatives, research opportunities and team professional support.
As a Specialist Integrated Children’s Occupational Therapist, you will…
✨ Deliver assessments and therapies to children with functional needs - helping them build confidence and independence.
🤝 Work closely with other professionals, including clinicians and psychologists - to make sure each child’s care is joined‑up & well supported.
👨👩👧 Support parents and educators, giving them the tools and guidance they need to help children on your caseload thrive.
🏠🏫 Work across clinics, homes, schools and community centres, bringing care into the places where children feel most comfortable.
Right now is the time to work in Hillingdon!
🏘️ You will help us shape the blueprint of future NHS services. Hillingdon has been chosen as part of the Government’s new neighbourhood health plan. We’ll be moving into an integrated way of working, within neighbourhood teams that bring together GPs, specialist NHS services (like ours), social care and charities - to create one of the country’s first Neighbourhood Health Services - focused on prevention and reducing hospital admissions.
Why CNWL is the best place for OTs to grow their career:
🏥 We’re one of the largest NHS Trusts, with 9,000+ staff and a large network of OTs across six London boroughs and into Milton Keynes.
👩⚕️ You’ll be a part of a dedicated country-leading OT workforce led by our Head of Profession with clear routes to grow – you can develop into a Team Lead, progress into Borough Lead or specialist‑lead roles. You’ll be part of an even wider Allied Health Professionals directorate spanning countless roles and opportunities for research/learning.
🚀 We offer in‑house leadership programmes designed to help you reach your 2‑year, 5‑year, long term career goals.
🎂… Oh, and we also give you an extra day of A/L for your birthday (other Trusts don’t do that 😏).
