We are looking for enthusiastic, positive and motivated individual(s) that have the skills and ability to motivate and engage with their patients and can work independently.

They will lead and adapt to innovation and service developments. They will support supervision and training and have the ability to work flexibly and collaboratively in a team. Experience of NHS working is desirable.

The University Health Board proactively supports training and development both as part of internal and external CPD.

We are looking for individuals with great interpersonal skills to network with acute and community colleagues to co‑ordinate a responsive, seamless service across pathways and sectors.

The successful post holders will have organisational ability and a commitment to service development. They will develop the evidence base for evaluation through audit, clinical effectiveness and research activity, and, as appropriate, there will be an expectation to deputise for senior management.

As a physiotherapy service, we recognise that our staff are our strongest asset and investment into the individual as a person as much as their professional development is important. We actively promote post‑graduate study with shared funding opportunities.

The pandemic has taught us more than ever the importance of work‑life balance and we encourage remote working when appropriate and flexible working arrangements.

The post holder will be required to participate in the provision of a flexible 7‑day service and participate on the respiratory on‑call rota with adequate training as required. This will be on a rota basis.
