Specialist Speech and Language Therapist
London, England, United Kingdom Full-time Posted 1 week ago
We are offering an exciting opportunity for a Speech and Language Therapist to secure a full time Band 6 post, 12-month fixed term contract with Camden Service for Young People (CSYP 11-19s). The SLT will have clinical caseloads of young people aged 11-19+ and may work within mainstream secondary schools and/or post-16 college settings. The SLT would provide assessment, 1:1 and group interventions, close working with the school/college team and provide universal input such as staff training, whilst being part of a large team of creative and innovative SLTs who specialise in working with the 11+ age group.
Currently, Camden secondary schools and college settings commission additional time from our service on annual service level agreements. Subject to service needs, the role provides potential for working in other well-established Camden or Whittington Health SLT teams after the initial 12 months.
Although this is a full-time post, candidates who are looking for part time, flexible working or job share opportunities will be considered. We have an agile working policy which offers opportunities to work from home, particularly in the school holidays.
Please see the Job Description and the Persons Specification for further details about the job role. If you are unable to access the PDFs, the details of the job description can also be found in the 'Detailed Job Description and Main responsibilities' section.

Whittington Health serves a richly diverse population and works hard to ensure that all our services are fair and equally accessible to everyone. Nowhere is this more obvious than in the way we look after our staff. We aim to employ a workforce which is as representative as possible of this population, so we are open to the value of differences in age, disability, gender, marital status, pregnancy and maternity, race, sexual orientation, and religion or belief. The Trust believes that as a public sector organisation we have an obligation to have recruitment, training, promotion and other formal employment policies and procedures that are sensitive to these differences. We think that by doing so, we are better able to treat our patients as well as being a better place to work.
