The Richmond Occupational Therapy Service is looking for a motivated and enthusiastic Band 6 OT to join the Richmond Children’s Therapy Team. You will join an established team of Occupational Therapists who work closely together in an integrated service with Children’s Physiotherapy and Speech and Language Therapy.

The service is commitment to continuing professional development which is strongly supported by the Trust.
