Summary

The Brent Children’s Clinical Services Unit is excited to offer a fantastic opportunity for an enthusiastic and experienced Band 5 Occupational Therapist, or a Band 6 OT looking to develop further, to join our dedicated Brent CYPOT team at CLCH Outer North West Division.

This is a chance for you to be part of a dynamic, forward-thinking team wherechildrenandyoung peopleare at the heart of everything we do. As a member of the Children’s Therapy Team (Paediatric SLT, OT and Physiotherapy) and the Child Development Service in Brent, you’ll be working with a supportive, inclusive group committed to delivering high-quality, family-centred care.

We’re looking for a proactive, creative and highly motivated OT who is passionate about improving the lives of children and young people. You’ll be someone who thrives in a collaborative environment, values inclusivity, and is eager to share knowledge and learn from others.

If you're ready to make a real difference in the lives of children and families, we'd love to hear from you.





As part of this role, you will provide a high-quality paediatric occupational therapy service, supporting children and young people referred to the community team, including those with specific needs identified in their Educational Health and Care Plans (EHCPs).
• Conduct assessments and implement interventions independently, using evidence-based approaches to identify functional needs.
• Set goals, plan treatment and deliver interventions, working closely with families and other professionals to ensure holistic support for each child’s development.
• Take responsibility for your own caseload, providing occupational therapy in both community and educational settings, ensuring each child's individual needs are met in line with their EHC plans.
• Foster a culture of continuous improvement and innovation, working with colleagues to develop best practices and ensure high-quality, child-centred care across teams.

We are proud to be one of the largest community healthcare providers in the country, with more than 4,500 colleagues caring for over four million people across London and Hertfordshire. Every day, our teams bring their skill, compassion, and determination to the people who depend on us.

What inspires us is at the heart of who we are: when we work together, we can help people move forward in ways that truly matter. Our teams support children as they take their first steps in life, and they stand beside adults as they rebuild strength, confidence, and independence. From newborn health visiting to community nursing, stroke rehabilitation, and palliative care, we are there for people through some of life’s most important moments.

Joining Central London Community Healthcare means becoming part of a community that lifts each other up. It means working in an organisation that values compassion, welcomes new ideas, and believes in the potential of every colleague. Your development matters here. Your wellbeing matters. Your voice helps shape the future of the care we provide.

We offer a competitive employment package because the work you do matters. At Central London Community Healthcare, you will join an inclusive organisation that invests in its people, supports development, and helps you thrive while delivering high-quality care.

Applicants are expected to present clear and relevant evidence of the competencies and responsibilities detailed in the attached Job Description and Person Specification, together with a demonstrated commitment to the Trust’s values of Accountability, Inclusion, Compassion, and Empowerment.
