Advanced Speech and Language Therapist
- Bairns Hoose
Combined Child Health
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a motivated and highly experienced Speech and Language Therapist to join our team on a temporary basis (funding available until April 2026) to be part of a Test of Change project within The Bairns Hoose programme. (Bairns' Hoose - Child protection - gov.scot)
Clinical work will be based at Royal Aberdeen Children’s Hospital; however, the post holder will deliver services to both Aberdeen City and Aberdeen Shire and will be expected to travel accordingly.
The post involves working with children and young people with a range of complex communication difficulties, including victims or witnesses of abuse and children under the age of criminal responsibility whose behaviour has caused harm.
Within the department of Speech and Language Therapy in Combined Child Health, we are committed to staff development through regular meetings, supervision, and ongoing support and training.
Informal queries are welcomed, and we are open to discussing secondment opportunities and flexible working. For further information, contact Marie O’Gorman, Lead Speech and Language Therapist, at 01224 552710, or Lorna Grant, Lead Speech and Language Therapist, Combined Child Health, at 07814 796203.
Interview date: 10th June 2025
