We are looking for a full time permanent experienced Occupational Therapist to join the Cluster Response Community team based in the North East of Edinburgh.
Are you an enthusiastic and motivated occupational therapist skilled in assessment and rehabilitation?

Then we’d love you to join one of our friendly, supportive Locality cluster response teams.
You will make a vital contribution to how we ensure people are supported within their home environment to live their best lives.
You will work closely with other Occupational Therapy colleagues in the team, community care assistants and social workers, as well as our other community colleagues such as GPs, district nurses care providers and voluntary sector.

We’re committed to creating a workplace culture where all our people feel valued, included and able to be their best at work, and we recognise the benefits that a diverse workforce with different values, beliefs, experience, and backgrounds brings to us as an organisation.
As part of our goal to improve our organisational culture and create a great place to work together for the people of Edinburgh, we want to make sure that we’re bringing the best people into our roles, not just in their skills and experience but also in their approach to work.
To help achieve this, we’re changing the way we interview and assess candidates by moving from a competency-based interview approach to a behavioural and technical (skills for the job) based approach. This new way of interviewing will allow us to assess how you think and how you would bring Our Behaviours of Respect, Integrity and Flexibility into your ways of working.

Our salary range typically reflects the initial starting salary and annually increases until it reaches the top of the range.
