B6 posts (B5-6 developmental option) – 2 WTE 36hr posts
We are delighted to be advertising these posts which will provide the successful candidates with opportunities to develop their skills and experience across several areas of our adult service. We welcome applications from existing Band 5 or Band 6 Speech and Language Therapists (SLTs) looking to consolidate their skills, and we also encourage applications from newly qualified SLTs, who would be appointed on a developmental basis (competency based). We are looking for motivated, enthusiastic and flexible individuals to join our team. Part-time options would be considered for the right candidate. There is a requirement for all candidates to hold a full driving licence. Dysphagia training is desirable, however, if not already undertaken, this training would be provided.
