Our team comprises of specialist staff who work predominately with students with complex needs from 3 years - 19 years of age.

Within the mainstream team, the post holder will manage and organise their own clinical caseload in addition to taking the lead for service delivery into a small cluster of schools grouped by locality, supporting junior therapists, making decisions about prioritisation and building strong relationships with these schools.

The post holder will receive regular supervision from a Lead therapist and will have opportunities to work closely with our established team of Highly Specialist SLTs within the service.

Whittington Health serves a richly diverse population and works hard to ensure that all our services are fair and equally accessible to everyone. Nowhere is this more obvious than in the way we look after our staff. We aim to employ a workforce which is as representative as possible of this population, so we are open to the value of differences in age, disability, gender, marital status, pregnancy and maternity, race, sexual orientation, and religion or belief. The Trust believes that as a public sector organisation we have an obligation to have recruitment, training, promotion and other formal employment policies and procedures that are sensitive to these differences. We think that by doing so, we are better able to treat our patients as well as being a better place to work.
