We are looking for an experienced, organised and dynamic person to join our Independent Living Team as the Senior Rehabilitation Officer covering three regional teams across Scotland.
The Independent Living Team supports those who have served in the Armed Forces and now have sight loss which has an impact on their daily life and independence. You will report to the Rehabilitation Practice Lead and will carry a small caseload. In addition you will provide expertise, supervision and advice to the rehabilitation officers/trainees.
You must be an experienced rehabilitation officer who is willing to take on new management challenges and has the expertise to mentor and supervise junior rehabilitation officers/trainees.
You must be a strong team player and be able to work on own initiative. This post may require some travel throughout Scotland, but will mainly be home based or from either Head Office in Edinburgh or the Hawkhead Centre in Paisley. However, remote working will be considered for those located out with these areas.
The post is subject to PVG Scheme Record/Update.
