The part-time role (salary £47,810–£54,710 per annum pro rata) delivers advanced clinical assessment and treatment for adult patients across acute, rehabilitation and outpatient burns services, major head and neck post‑operative and tracheostomy management, and rehabilitation after breast and reconstructive plastic surgery. You will work day-to-day in established MDTs alongside occupational therapists, speech and language therapists, dietitians, nursing staff, psychological therapists and surgical teams, with direct peer support from two other Band 7s and the Therapy Services Manager.
