You will take a lead in reviewing and evaluating new and existing equipment.
You will liaise with service user groups and other stakeholders, including local voluntary and statutory services, to facilitate joint working where appropriate and identify opportunities for improving service user outcomes.
You will provide support for internal and external training programmes, including apprenticeships, student placements etc. and contribute to the development of internal training resources.
You will undertake and document all necessary risk assessments and corresponding risk management, relating to (but not limited to) equipment provision, safeguarding, moving and handling, infection control etc.
About you:

You will be a highly motivated individual with excellent organisational and communication skills, able to work as an autonomous practitioner and as a key member of a multi-disciplinary team.
Strong interpersonal and diplomacy skills combined with the ability to manage a varied workload are essential.
You will have a track record of using your analytical, engineering and practical skills to solve problems for service users in relation to their mobility equipment.
You should be proficient in the use of hand tools, including hand power tools, and be competent to operate appropriate workshop equipment.
Experient of working with patients with long term or deteriorating medical conditions would be advantageous.
You will be confident in the use of digital systems and software for record-keeping and for analysis of service performance.
