We're looking for an enthusiastic, experienced Occupational Therapist (Band 6+) to join Words First, delivering therapy across schools in the Dartford area!

At Words First, we're passionate about providing creative, child-centred and neurodiversity-affirming therapy that makes a real difference to children and young people.

You'll have the opportunity to use your clinical expertise to deliver individual and group interventions, support whole-school approaches and collaborate with school staff and families to help pupils thrive.

And while you'll be working across schools, you'll be part of something much bigger: our wonderful Words First multidisciplinary community! 💚

• Find your people! Join a large, warm and welcoming community of therapists and specialists who share ideas, celebrate successes and support one another.
• Never stop learning! Enjoy regular CPD, clinical guidance and access to experienced professionals across multiple disciplines.

• Bring your own flair! We welcome creativity, fresh thinking and the freedom to bring your clinical expertise to your work.
• Feel connected! From team gatherings to professional learning opportunities, there's always a chance to connect with your Words First colleagues.

We're looking for an HCPC-registered Occupational Therapist working at Band 6 level or above, with paediatric experience, strong clinical reasoning and a passion for supporting children and young people in educational settings.

If you love what you do, enjoy finding creative solutions and want to be part of a genuinely supportive professional community, we'd love to hear from you!
