We can discuss flexible working hours and the opportunity for hybrid work (home and community-based).







Key Responsibilities:

To collaborate with Speech and Language Therapists to manage caseloads working with direction and guidance from SLTs to provide a service to clients within a community setting providing advice and treatment to clients with communication and / or swallowing difficulties where appropriate.

Maintain accurate client records and monitor progress, feeding back to Speech and Language Therapy Team as required

To design and create resources and low-tech communication aids for the department, the speech and language therapists, and individual client sessions, carers and other professionals



This is a dual role, so being able to multitask is important. There will be aspects of independent patient facing work as well as aspect of clinical signposting, data gathering and supporting therapists.

We are proud to provide ‘Outstanding’ care and be a great place to work.

We provide safe, compassionate and high quality care to half a million people living or visiting East Sussex.
