Job description

At National Star, we don’t just work – we transform lives.

We’re looking for compassionate, dedicated Occupational Therapists to become a vital part of our vibrant multi-disciplinary team. This is more than a job. It’s a calling for those who believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to live life to their fullest potential.

Every day, your work will matter.

You’ll empower young people with complex physical and learning difficulties, helping them develop skills, confidence, and independence. You’ll use your creativity and clinical expertise to design personalised therapy programmes that don’t just meet needs – they unlock potential.

Your role will include:

Designing and delivering safe, meaningful interventions that enhance wellbeing, skill development, and independence
Working closely with students, families, and professionals to achieve life-changing outcomes
Managing your own caseload with autonomy and accountability
Keeping accurate, respectful records in line with professional standards
Always putting the student at the heart of what you do

What you bring:

BSc in Occupational Therapy, HCPC registration (and ideally, RCOT membership) – we can consider newly qualified graduates or those with some experience to build upon as you progress your career with us.
Previous experience in paediatrics, neurology, acquired brain injury, wheelchairs and special seating, complex disability, profound and multiple learning disability or sensory integration would be of particular interest to us, but for new graduates we can help you develop your expertise in these areas
A heart for learners with complex needs—and the resilience, skill and creativity to support them
The ability to communicate with empathy and clarity across all levels working across multidisciplinary teams internally and externally
A positive, proactive approach to collaboration, problem-solving and reflection
Access to transport and the flexibility to occasionally travel to other campuses

Why National Star?

Be part of a team that believes in people
Thrive in a supportive, learning-rich environment where your growth matters
Grow your career in a role where you can use your clinical excellence to make a real difference
Join an organisation deeply committed to safeguarding, equality, and inclusion
We have Occupational Therapists working at a variety of sites across Gloucestershire, Herefordshire, Worcestershire and South Wales and are planning staffing levels for the coming academic year – if this role does not suit your current requirements, but you are keen to consider working with us, please get in touch to register your interest.
