Are you a passionate and motivated Occupational Therapist who wants to make a real difference to people's lives? Newport City Council's Community Occupational Therapy Team is looking for a dedicated Occupational Therapist to join our supportive and forward-thinking team in a permanent post working 30 hours per week.

This is an exciting opportunity to work within Adult Social Care, supporting adults to remain safe, independent and connected to what matters most to them. You will work directly with individuals, families, carers and partner agencies to complete strengths-based assessments, identify outcomes, recommend equipment, technology and adaptations, and develop practical solutions that promote independence and wellbeing.

To find out more about the post, please contact Katie Powell [email protected] or Liz Airdrie [email protected]

We welcome applications for all our jobs in either Welsh or English. An application submitted in Welsh will not be treated less favourably than an application submitted in English.

Newport City Council is committed to working towards its workforce being more representative of the population that we serve and particularly welcomes applications from people from minority ethnic communities represented (or living) in the city. Selection will be made on ability and skills to undertake the role.

Newport City Council is not currently supporting applicants with sponsorship for right to work. In applying for a vacancy, applicants should already have the right to work in the UK.
