Working in healthcare is more than just a job. It’s a chance to change lives. We are looking for a highly motivated individual to recruit to the position of Speech and Language Therapy Assistant to join our therapy department in our Learning Disability & Autism services in the North & Midlands.

This is an exciting and unique opportunity to work in a multidisciplinary team to support service users across a number of small complex care services, and residential care homes in Yorkshire and Humber (Grimsby, Barnsley and Rotherham).

You will engage with the multidisciplinary team and ensure that the service users are fully engaged in their care pathway.

Your role will include a significant focus on providing communication support to Autistic adults and adults with a Learning Disability. With support and supervision from the Regional Lead Speech and Language Therapist, you will develop and implement individualised communication interventions and communication supports based on service users’ needs and strengths, encouraging co-production of service, service user independence, and development of life skills with a focus on improving quality of life.

You will be responsible for supporting with induction programmes, delivering training on communication for new starters at the company, bespoke workshops for individual service users’ communication methods and needs, and other training programmes as required.

- Being an integral part of the Multi-Disciplinary Team
- Contributing to audit and research
- Carry out these duties in consultation and under supervision of the Regional Lead Speech and Language Therapist and contribute to the maintenance and development of a high-quality Speech and Language Therapy service

**To be successful in this role, you will need**:

- Experience of working with people in a similar or related field relevant to the post
- Knowledge of communication approaches
- Have a good understanding of the legal frameworks that are relevant to the role (e.g., Mental Capacity Act)
- Literacy and technology skills to be able to create reports and utilise specialised communication aid software
- Excellent interpersonal and communication skills

**What you will get**:

- Annual salary of £22,984
- The equivalent of 33 days annual leave - plus your birthday off
- Employee Assistance Services
- A Group Personal Pension Plan (GPPP)
- Life Assurance
- Continuous learning and development
- Enhanced Maternity Package
- Career development
- Voluntary Benefits
