KT Healthcare is a family-run organisation providing assessment and therapeutic services across the Brain Injury and Complex Care sectors. Our team of clinicians work on a sub-contracting basis – they are highly specialist and deliver high-quality assessments, reports, and therapy sessions within a multidisciplinary team.

We’re looking for an experienced Speech and Language Therapist to provide maternity cover for an existing client based in a school in Chelmsford.

The role involves supporting a Year 9 student with mild speech and language difficulties, who has been an existing KT Healthcare client for several years. The student will require a consistent and experienced therapist to provide ongoing support once or twice a month within the school setting.

This is a fantastic opportunity for an SLT looking for a small, flexible caseload, with the potential for additional work and further opportunities with KT Healthcare following the maternity cover period.

Ideally, you will have experience working with children and young people in an educational setting, although we would also welcome applications from therapists with relevant experience across the wider age range.

At KT Healthcare, we are committed to fostering excellence in clinical practice and supporting our team to deliver the highest standards of care.

• A supportive and professional working environment
• Access to group training and continued professional development
• Regular peer support and 1:1 supervision sessions
• Flexible working arrangements
• Highly competitive rates of pay
• The autonomy to choose your client group or caseload
• Potential for further work and additional referrals

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Speech and Language Therapist seeking a flexible, rewarding associate role, providing continuity of support to an established client while also having the opportunity to develop a wider caseload with a respected and growing organisation.

There will be travel to the client’s school in Chelmsford, with potential for other provisions depending on your interests and availability.
