Job Description

Are you looking to further your career in either Speech and Language Therapy or Nutrition and Dietetics? An exciting opportunity has arisen to join our teams on a full time, permanent basis within a new role. The role will be split across the acute Speech and Language Therapy team and the acute Dietetic team working cross site between Epsom General Hospital and St Helier Hospital. The role will be varied, suiting someone who wants to work in a busy and fast based clinical environment with new challenges and learning opportunities.

Epsom and St Helier University Hospitals NHS Trust provides a range of medical services to approximately 490,000 people living across southwest London and northeast Surrey. In addition, we provide more specialist services, in particular renal and neonatal intensive care, to a wider area, covering parts of Sussex and Hampshire.

We serve an area that is rich in diversity, with a mix of urban and rural areas, and differing levels of quality of life. We cover some of the most prosperous postcodes in the country, as well as some poorer areas. Together with our colleagues at NHS Surrey and NHS Sutton and Merton, we work to make sure that we deliver the best possible care to the communities we serve.

The Trust employs approximately 5,000 staff across its hospitals and is supported by over 500 volunteers.
