Hybrid jobs in United Kingdom

We are looking for a highly motivated and experienced Physiotherapist to join the Dorset Pain Management Service. The successful candidate will ideally have experience of working with patients with long term conditions but if not please do get in touch anyway and have a chat as full training and support will be provided.

The post is part-time and will cover East Dorset and the team base will be Poole Community Health Centre with hybrid working and face‑to‑face clinics in locations across the patch.

The Dorset Pain Management Service is a vibrant service, consisting of an inter‑professional team. We employ modernised clinical practice to help people coping with chronic, non‑malignant pain lead meaningful lives.

Our pan‑Dorset service offers individual interventions and group programmes in various locations county‑wide; these are delivered by two teams across the county. The staff mix includes pain consultants, psychologists, specialist physiotherapists, pain and mental health nurses and occupational therapists, therapy assistants, trainees from various departments and our hardworking admin support team.

Applications from candidates that require current Skilled Worker sponsorship to work in the UK are unfortunately ineligible to apply for this position.

• To provide a high quality person centred approach to care delivery which always considers people’s safety, privacy and dignity.
• To provide specialist care and interventions, assessments, treatments and managing patients on a caseload, as part of the wider multi‑disciplinary care team.
• To provide specialist advice to others regarding the management and care of patients / service users.
• To devise specialist programmes of care for other professionals to deliver and ensure they are delivered appropriately.
• To plan, implement and review health improvement programmes in a range of settings.
• Provide supervision, mentorship, training and clinical support to students and trained practitioners.

Employment in this post requires an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check, which the Trust will cover the cost of. Applicants who subscribe to the DBS update service are able to present a valid DBS certificate instead of requiring a new check.

For the main duties and responsibilities for this role please read the attached job description and person specification. When completing your application please ensure your supporting statement reflects the criteria set out in these documents by showing how your experience and skills apply to this post.

We understand that using AI can be a useful and supportive tool when completing your application. However, we have also seen an increase in the over‑reliance of AI tools which is negatively impacting applications as they remove candidate’s individuality, and it becomes much harder to get a sense of who you are and your authentic experience. If you do use AI, it should be used to enhance your application and not to create your supporting statement in its entirety. If we suspect you have used AI to create your supporting statement and this does not match your experience, we may withdraw your application.

As part of our vision to have a skilled, diverse and caring workforce, Dorset HealthCare offers support for people getting into work. We offer an employability service to support individuals with application writing, interview skills and other employment support. If you would like or know of anyone who would value this support, please do contactdhc.wideningparticipation@nhs.net
