Are you a Newly Qualified Speech and Language Therapist wanting to gain experience working with people with additional needs?

How would you like to be paid for five days but only work four*?

Our colleagues’ wellbeing is at the heart of everything we do at OFG, so we’re always looking for new ways to improve everyone’s work/life balance. We’re taking part in a trial of the 4-Day Working Week, meaning that you could be working one day less a week (or equivalent).

If the trial is a success, we’ll be rolling the 4DWW out across the Group – so there’s never been a more exciting time to join #teamOFG!

Location: Heath Farm School – Kent, TN27 0AX

Salary: Up to £30,000 FTE DOE

About the role

We understand the value of helping our employees to achieve their Continued Professional Development goals and offer a £2,000 training allowance to allow you to complete role specific training tailored to your individual requirements.

Does joining an evidence-based provision where quality and neuro-affirming best practice is delivered, interest you? We are looking for an enthusiastic newly qualified Speech and Language Therapist to join our expanding team. In this role, you will complete a preceptorship year under the supervision of a senior speech and language therapist before working more independently once competencies are signed off. As a registered practitioner, you will implement a holistic, therapeutic, and dynamic approach to helping our pupils in their daily lives with supervision, while maintaining your professional practice and CPD. You will assess and treat individuals within the service, deliver meaningful activities in both individual and group settings, and conduct screenings and assessments as required, with report writing supported initially by your supervisor. Additionally, you will provide information and training to staff, commissioners, and other agencies as needed.

You will work within our supportive multidisciplinary therapy team to help create an environment where our pupils can flourish, learn, and develop. The team includes Psychology, Speech and Language Therapy, Occupational Therapy, and therapy assistants. An integrated approach to care, education, and clinical services is ideal for this role.
