We are looking for an experienced Band 6 Speech and Language Therapist to join our team of therapists and clinical support workers serving North East Glasgow.

We work in homes, nurseries, schools, health centres and community settings and have a whole team office base at Stobhill Hospital.
Our team is passionate about preventing the adverse health and wellbeing impacts that result if communication needs and environments are unsupported. We are neuro-affirming in our approach and we align our practice with Realistic Medicine principles. We offer our expert advice, support and guidance to a range of families, young people and colleagues.
If you are suitably qualified, registered with HCPC, an RCSLT member and keen to further develop your practice journey, we would welcome your application.
