**Occupational Therapy Assistant**
The Council Strategy sets out our vision to create a city of opportunity where everyone thrives. Delivering this is essential if we are to help make Southampton the city our residents deserve. A city where people have opportunities to succeed and can live healthy and happy lives.
Being part of the Southampton City Council team requires people who are willing to take personal responsibility for delivering excellence, to work with others to achieve the best possible outcomes, to embrace change and new opportunities, to make the most of the resources available to us and to think and act in the best interests of our customers - the residents of Southampton.

The Occupational Therapy service provides both assessment and recommendations for adults with multiple and complex disabilities requiring major adaptations via both the disabled facilities grant and our council housing revenue account. The team also provide some equipment and minor works where required.
The service sits within the newly formed Wellbeing and Housing Directorate and the team work collaboratively with housing, adult social services, health partners, private sector housing team and council adaptations team, as well as being part of the wider network of Occupational Therapists across the City Council, delivering outcomes that support independence and wellbeing for residents of the city.
We are busy embedding strength-based approaches into everyday practice and with an eye on innovation, we foster a creative culture that encourages new ideas from our staff and from our residents. This is an exciting opportunity for the right person to make a real contribution to Southampton City Council and to support the achievement of the council outcomes for the city.
Some experience of working within adult services, equipment provision and adaptations would be helpful, but training will be provided. You will receive ongoing supervision from qualified Occupational Therapists within the team and have the opportunity for further training and continuing professional development.
