This is a fantastic opportunity to work in a supportive environment where your clinical leadership, experience in neurological rehabilitation, and desire for continuous development will be fully valued and encouraged.

Located just outside Broadbridge Heath, this residential service provides specialist neurorehabilitation to adults living with acquired brain injuries. You’ll work closely with a dedicated team of rehabilitation support workers, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, psychologists, and speech and language therapists.

The service is focused on delivering person-centred care across three distinct rehabilitation pathways: Neurobehavioral, Neurorestorative, and Well-being.

The Role:

As Senior Specialist Physiotherapist, you’ll provide expert physiotherapy within a neurobehavioral model and take a leading role in developing the service’s physiotherapy provision. You'll be responsible for complex assessments, treatment planning, supervision of junior staff, and contributing to service-wide clinical excellence.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Undertaking detailed neurological assessments and delivering tailored physiotherapy plans
  • Leading complex clinical decision-making within the multidisciplinary team
  • Providing advanced interventions across all three rehabilitation pathways
  • Supporting and supervising physiotherapy colleagues, students, and assistants
  • Acting as a key contributor to the ongoing development of specialist physiotherapy practices
  • Supporting evidence-based practice through collaboration and training

You’ll need:

  • A Degree in Physiotherapy (or equivalent)
  • HCPC registration
  • A minimum of 4 years post-registration experience, including at least 2 years in neurorehabilitation or a related field (e.g., learning disabilities, mental health, MSK)
  • Strong clinical reasoning and experience working with acquired brain injury
  • A Practice Placement qualification or willingness to complete one
  • A full UK driving licence and willingness to drive service users in unit vehicles
  • Flexibility to travel and stay overnight if required by service needs

What’s in it for you?

You’ll be part of a forward-thinking service that invests in its people and puts wellbeing, quality, and development first.

You can expect:

  • A competitive salary of £46,148 – £52,809 FTE (DOE) + £1/hour location allowance
  • 38 days annual leave (pro-rata) including bank holidays
  • Option to buy or sell up to 5 days’ annual leave
  • Health Cash Plan (launching June 2025)
  • Access to Employee Assistance Programme (EAP)
  • Excellent training, CPD, and development support
  • Group life assurance
  • Eye care voucher scheme
  • Company pension
