Overview
Designed to support the development of Speech and Language Therapy services across pathways and clinical areas, this post offers structured nine-month rotations across both adult and children's services. Ideal for newly qualified graduates or clinicians seeking to broaden their clinical experience, the role provides exposure to a wide range of speech, language, communication, and swallowing needs. As new funding becomes available, additional clinical areas will be added. You'll work across homes, clinics, care homes, and educational settings in Oxfordshire. A full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle are essential, with reasonable adjustments considered under the Equality Act 2010.
You'll manage your own caseload, delivering evidence-based SLT to children and young people (0-19) with speech, language, and communication needs. Working across special schools, mainstream schools, and nurseries, you'll adapt interventions to suit individual needs--from AAC and sensory strategies to early language and inclusive communication. You'll also rotate into adult services, supporting clients with communication and/or dysphagia needs. Duties include assessment, care planning, report writing, MDT collaboration, and SEND contributions. You'll supervise assistants and students, support service development, and contribute to training and audit.
