If you're newly qualified, or in the early stages of your podiatry career, choosing your first "proper" job is one of the biggest decisions you'll make.

The right clinic can accelerate your career by years.

The wrong one can leave you doing exactly the same thing, day in, day out, wondering why everyone else seems to be progressing whilst you're standing still.

That's why we were genuinely excited when we spoke to our client.

They aren't simply looking for someone to fill appointments.

They're looking for someone they can invest in.

Someone they can mentor.

Someone they can help become one of the clinic's future Senior Practitioners.

You won't be expected to arrive knowing everything.

In fact, our client would rather recruit someone with the right attitude, genuine curiosity and a willingness to learn than someone who thinks they already know it all.

You'll begin by building confidence across general podiatry whilst gradually developing into MSK, biomechanics, sports podiatry, rehabilitation, gait analysis and advanced foot and ankle practice.

It's a structured journey, not a case of being thrown in at the deep end.

We also love how realistic and flexible our client is.

They understand that everyone's career path is different and genuinely want to help people become the best clinicians they can be.

If you're ambitious, enjoy learning and want to look back in five years' time and be amazed by how much you've developed, this could be exactly the opportunity you've been waiting for.

And let's not forget where you'll be living.

Imagine finishing work and being only minutes away from mountains, beaches, forests and some of the most spectacular scenery anywhere in the UK.

This role would suit someone who is excited about building a long-term career rather than simply finding their next job.

You'll ideally have:

• HCPC Registration as a Podiatrist (or be eligible to obtain HCPC registration)
• Newly qualified status or up to approximately two years' post-registration experience
• Excellent communication and patient care skills
• A genuine passion for learning
• A positive, friendly and approachable personality
• A willingness to ask questions and develop
• Pride in delivering excellent patient care
• Eligibility to work in the UK, or the ability to meet Skilled Worker sponsorship requirements

You do not need experience in advanced MSK, biomechanics or diagnostic ultrasound.

That's exactly what you'll be supported to learn.

Most importantly, we're looking for someone who is:

• Curious
• Motivated
• Reliable
• Caring
• Open to feedback
• Excited about becoming an exceptional clinician

This opportunity could be perfect if...

• You're graduating soon and want the best possible start to your career.
• You're newly qualified but feel your current role isn't stretching you.
• You'd love a mentor who genuinely enjoys teaching.
• You're…
