Are you looking for your first post or looking to grow your foundation skills working with adults across a range of settings and specialties?

At Sandwell and West Birmingham NHS Trust, the Speech and Language Therapy Service is excited to recruit an additional band 5 rotational therapist into our team at a time of considerable and exciting change as the trust works towards its move to the state of the art Midland Metropolitan University Hospital .

In our team, we focus on:

  • Setting our goals around what matters to the patient
  • Identifying vulnerable patients early on for intervention
  • Being visible and integrated within our MDTs

Main duties of the job

An enthusiasm to work with an adult caseload is vital and undergraduate knowledge and experience with a range of acquired communication, voice and swallowing disorders in an acute hospital or community placement will be essential. A successful candidate will be joining an SLT team with a strong commitment to integrated working and quality improvement. There will be excellent training and development opportunities, scope to lead in areas of service development, as well as a robust supervision and appraisal system . You will have the opportunity to work alongside highly specialist staff and integrate into a variety of specialist multi-disciplinary teams, both in the acute hospital and community setting.

About us

Sandwell and West Birmingham NHS Trust (SWBT) is an integrated careorganisation with a budget of approximately 600 million and over 7,000 staff. Diversity and social care is at the core of what we do as the Trust provides Community and Acute Services to over half a million people in an urban centre that demands massive regeneration and has substantial premature mortality.

Our new acute hospital, the Midland Metropolitan University Hospital (MMUH), opens in 2024 and will provide care to our local population from first class, purpose-built premises.As a result, the base of this role may change to MMUH from 2024 (or beyond). If this is applicable to your role, you will be informed during the recruitment process and continuing your application with this understanding.The development of the new hospital will play an important role in the regeneration of the wider area and in improving the lives of local people and reducing health inequalities.

We have three newly emerging strategic objectives:

  • Our People - to cultivate and sustain happy, productive and engaged staff
  • Our Patients - to be good or outstanding in everything we do
  • Our Population - to work seamlessly with our partners to improve life
