An exciting opportunity has arisen within Kingston Hospital Foundation Trust, for an enthusiastic and highly motivated Band 7 Occupational Therapist to join our acute ITU and surgical unit as a team lead.
The successful candidate will join a team passionate about lifelong learning and career mapping. You will receive regular supervision and participate in a senior CPD teaching and peer support program. You will also support a junior teaching program, have a yearly performance appraisal and where linked to your appraisal and career mapping you will be supported to seek funding for external formal courses. You will be supported by an experienced highly specialist MDT team and operational lead.
You will work collaboratively within an integrated specialist therapy team to provide holistic, patient-centered occupational therapy that empowers patient’s to achieve their goals.
You will be joining a department that is embracing change to ensure practice is in line with current evidence-based practice, national and local polices, and within the scope of professional standards of practice.

The successful applicant will also be expected to contribute to the weekend and bank holiday rota in A&E and on the acute wards. The ITU and surgical Unit does not currently offer a 7 day service but this may change in the future.
Overseas Applicants: Applications from those currently living overseas are welcome; however please note that there are currently government restrictions in place regarding the issue of work visas and travel to the UK. As a result this may delay the recruitment process by several months for any international applicant who is appointable.

To support this, our values are that we are all:
