We are seeking a Specialist Speech and Language Therapist to  work within the County North Team. This post within our Early Intervention Speech and Language Therapy contract with Nottinghamshire County Council focuses on providing early identification and support for pre-school children with SLCN.

The Children's Speech and Language Therapy Service provides support to children with a  range of communication and eating and drinking needs across Nottingham City and County.

A full UK driving licence and vehicle for business use is required for this post; however reasonable adjustments will be made for disabled individuals in line with the Equality Act 2010.

Please note that this post does not meet the pay level required for a Skilled worker visa.

Successful applicants with no prior NHS experience would normally be placed at the bottom of the band in line with Agenda for Change. This salary is below the minimum salary required for sponsorship for a Skilled Worker / Health & Care visa. In these circumstances the Trust would not, therefore, be able to sponsor for a Skilled Worker / Health & Care visa.

Applicants requiring a Skilled Worker Visa can determine the likelihood of obtaining a Certificate of Sponsorship against the relevant criteria here https://www.gov.uk/skilled-worker-visa
