Community jobs in Grande-Bretagne

We are seeking an enthusiastic Occupational Therapist with 1‑2 years of NHS experience & prior involvement in stroke rehabilitation to join the Integrated Stroke Early Supported Discharge (ESD) and Community Neuro Rehabilitation Service (CNRS).

ESD is a key pathway for stroke survivors, allowing them to leave hospital earlier than they may have otherwise. CNRS supports stroke patients that do not meet the ESD criteria and other neurological conditions in the community.

This is an exciting opportunity to join an established multi‑disciplinary team comprising Occupational Therapists, Physiotherapists, Speech & Language Therapists, Psychologists, Specialist Nurses & Rehab Assistants.

This role requires the candidate to manage a clinical caseload across the North of Cambridgeshire; their base will be Peterborough, Doddington, Wisbech or Ely. It also involves visiting patients in their homes, wards or community gyms and may require cover elsewhere in Cambridgeshire, agile working & using virtual consultation to manage a caseload.

• You will provide comprehensive assessments and deliver evidence‑based specialist neuro‑occupational therapy programmes.
• You will work as part of a multidisciplinary team in supporting patients with physical, cognitive, and psychosocial needs to achieve their potential.

Given the specialist nature of this service, applicants must bring prior experience of stroke rehabilitation—whether gained in acute, community, ESD, or neurorehabilitation settings—to ensure confidence and competence when working with this patient group.

We pride ourselves on the development of our workforce and provide a variety of internal and external training opportunities. The successful post holder will receive and provide clinical supervision and an annual appraisal.

The ideal candidate should be flexible and adaptable to support service delivery. The successful post holder must be able to travel independently across their work locality, have a valid driving licence and access to a car for work purposes.

These services include children's, adult and older people's mental health, forensic and specialist mental health, learning disabilities, primary care and liaison psychiatry, substance misuse, social care, research and development.

To achieve our goal, we look to recruit high‑calibre candidates who share our vision and values. As an equal opportunities employer, we encourage applications from all sectors of the community, particularly from under‑represented groups including people with long‑term conditions and members of our ethnic minority and LGBTQ+ communities.
