Job summary
Are you passionate about patient care and are looking for a new and exciting challenge? Come and join our innovative, supportive and highly skilled Occupational Therapy Team at Liverpool University Hospital Foundation Trust!

The role requires excellent communication skills and the ability to work as an effective member of the wider team as well as with other external agencies. You will be required to participate or lead on service review in order to identify service development needs and support the band 7 in delivering this while meeting clinical service demands
We have regular team meetings and are committed to continuing professional development. We have a clear supervision structure and advice is available from our highly skilled Band 7s and 8as within the departments.
Band 6 employees are required to supervise Band 5 and assistant staff, and deputise for clinical team leads.
