Are you an experienced MSK Physiotherapist looking for your next challenge?

We have an exciting opportunity to join our MSK Physiotherapy Service as a Senior Physiotherapist on a 12-month fixed-term contract.

This role is for maternity leave cover and offers the opportunity to manage a varied caseload of musculoskeletal patients, providing high-quality assessment, diagnosis and rehabilitation for individuals with a wide range of MSK conditions.

You will work as part of an experienced multidisciplinary team. While the job plan for the role will be predominantly direct clinical care, there may be opportunities to contribute to service development, quality improvement, education and clinical leadership. You will work collaboratively with specialist MSK services and the MSK Advanced Practitioner team.

We are looking for a clinician with strong core MSK assessment and treatment skills, excellent communication abilities and a passion for delivering patient-centred care.
