We are a friendly, supportive and experienced team and look forward to welcoming a passionate Occupational Therapist who is committed to helping people regain independence and improve their quality of life.

This is an excellent opportunity to make a meaningful difference across the North and West areas of West Sussex while working within a dynamic and person-centred service.
