**Band 5**: Speech and Language Therapist
We are pleased to be able to offer a Speech and Language Therapist post within our friendly children’s service. Our children’s SLT service is organised into seven locality teams serving the areas of Stockton, Hartlepool, County Durham and Darlington. This post will be based in the Durham locality.
You will join an enthusiastic, friendly team of therapists and assistants supported by the speech and language therapy leadership team. Clinical supervision is well established for staff at all levels. The service promotes work-life balance and supports flexible working arrangements.
When you start you will have a personal mentor to support you in your settling in period and will follow an induction programme to help familiarise you with people and places.
As a key member of the team you will be passionate about working with children and young people, and will enjoy working collaboratively with a range of different partners including both professionals, parents and carers. You will be an excellent communicator and will work both independently and as part of a team in different settings. You will carry a caseload of children and young people with a range of difficulties with support and supervision from more experienced and specialist therapists as appropriate.
**This post will provide you with**:
- experience of working with a mixed and varied caseload of children/young people
- the opportunity to work with other generalist speech and language therapists
- the opportunity to work with specialist and clinical lead speech and language therapists
- the opportunity to work within a range of community settings including clinics, home visits, mainstream and special school settings
- the opportunity for multidisciplinary working
- a structured programme of support and supervision
At North Tees & Hartlepool NHS Foundation Trust our main priority is, and always will be, to provide safe and high quality care to our patients every day; the kind of care we would want for ourselves and our loved ones. We want our organisation to be the best place to work with the right staff, in the right roles, at the right time, to ensure we deliver exceptional patient care and experience.
We will support staff through providing an inclusive and supportive workplace with health and well-being initiatives, staff benefits and opportunities for personal and professional development. Staff recognition is very important to us; as well as performance reviews and appraisals, we recognise staff through Star and Team of the month, colleague recognition - a note of thanks, Managers Awards, Shining Stars and Service Awards.
We recruit for values and “Together we are North Tees & Hartlepool”
