Therapist - Occupational II (Specialist Paediatric Occupational Therapist – Neurodevelopmental Service)

We are seeking an experienced Occupational Therapist with full certification in Ayres Sensory Integration (ASI®) to join our Neurodevelopmental Occupational Therapy service. You will practise in a high-fidelity clinical environment aligned with the Ayres Sensory Integration Fidelity Measure© (ASIFM), with state-of-the-art suspended equipment and robust safety protocols. The role requires an evidence-based, child-led approach that delivers individually tailored “just-right” challenges and supports families to achieve meaningful participation and developmental outcomes.

As a Specialist Paediatric Occupational Therapist, you will assess and treat children and young people aged 0–18 years with autism, ADHD, anxiety and other conditions managed within Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS). Working with the wider multidisciplinary team, you will help develop neurodevelopmental OT pathways and improve children’s functional participation at home, in education and in the community.

You will bring substantial experience of supporting children and young people with autism, ADHD, anxiety, sensory processing differences and other CAMHS diagnoses. Leadership experience within specialist paediatric occupational therapy is essential.

If you are passionate about advancing neurodevelopmental occupational therapy and improving outcomes for children and families, we welcome your application to join our specialist team.
