Join our founding team and help shape a new therapy-led addiction recovery service.

We are recruiting Addictions Therapists for Tudor House, our latest residential service in Grafton Regis located in rural Northamptonshire, close to Milton Keynes and Northampton.

Home to Flourish, Priory’s therapy-led addiction programme, offering personalised treatment in a calm, homely setting. Opening is planned for January 2027, with role start dates from late November 2026 onwards.

We will support your development during your first year through an individually agreed plan, which may include study days and guidance from your line manager and colleagues across Priory.

You will join the higher salary band if you already hold the required accreditation or equivalent status, or progress to it once this is achieved and verified.
