An exciting opportunity has arisen at Stockport NHS Foundation Trust for a Band 4 Therapy Technical Instructor within the Medicine and Surgery Team.

You are required to have significant experience as a Band 2 or 3 Therapy Assistant. Experience of working in an intermediate care, in-patient or community based setting is essential. An understanding of the role of physiotherapy, occupational therapy and social work within these settings is required. You will also need to have good time management, prioritisation skills, flexibility and ability to use your own initiative in the completion of tasks. The work can be physically demanding but very rewarding.

You will be working alongside the Physiotherapists and Occupational Therapists, carrying out a range of assessments/reviews of patients in an acute setting. You will be undertaking a range of tasks independently within a supported environment. You must be able to work flexibly depending on the needs of the service.

We hold a unique position in the Stockport community as the provider of healthcare and we are one of its largest employers.

Our mission is to make a difference every day. Our values are that we care, we respect, and we listen

We believe that the best organisations are those that reflect the communities they serve. We are therefore seeking to improve the diversity of our workforce to make it truly representative of our local population.

We recognise that flexible working is important. We take requests for flexible working seriously, consider any request we receive and try to work with you, so we can explore if your request may fit with the needs of the service.

The salary for the role is only one part of the excellent package of benefits we offer to you:

- Between 27-33 days of annual leave plus bank holidays
- NHS pension scheme membership
- Salary sacrifice schemes for lease cars, home electronics and more, to make your salary go further
- NHS Staff discounts
- Cycle to work scheme
- Salary finance - for loans, savings, budget planning and tips on managing debt
- Stockport Credit Union
- for local financial advice

You will find that the therapy team is welcoming, friendly and supportive and that there is a strong commitment to multidisciplinary working. There is a structure in place to support supervision and professional development.

The Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment and promote safeguarding by implementing the Trust’s policies and procedures, acting promptly on concerns, communicating effectively and sharing information appropriately.

If successful this vacancy will require an enhanced DBS check at a cost of £41.90. This cost will be deducted from your first Trust salary

In addition to this it will be a condition of your employment that you will join the DBS update service and pay the annual subscription fee of £13.
