Physiotherapists

Physiotherapists provide physiotherapy assessment, diagnosis, treatment and advice to patients. You will play a vital role in helping patients to regain full use and mobility following a clinical procedure. You will work closely with the theatre and nursing staff to understand the patient’s needs and agree a care plan based on these. Physiotherapy often starts only a few hours after surgery and you will need excellent interpersonal skills to encourage and support patients to collaborate with you on their treatment. You will also deliver out patient treatment after surgery or on referral from a GP in our well equipped treatment rooms.

Training and Development

We encourage you to follow up on your specific interest areas

Your training starts on the day you join with a comprehensive induction programme, and leads on to mandatory training including infection control and health and safety competencies.

Your career prospects

Studying for further specialist qualifications will certainly improve your prospects within Spire given the sheer range and complexity of the procedures we undertake. We encourage you to follow up on your specific interest areas. For example, patients at our Breast Cancer clinics within Spire benefit from physiotherapists who have attended specialist courses in this area.

We are keen to promote from within the Spire network so studying for supervisory and management qualifications can help you progress within the company. We offer an excellent in-house management development programme.

What we are looking for

You will be a qualified physiotherapist ideally working towards a post registration qualification. You will have experience of working in teams and working with minimum supervision. Ideally you will have experience of applying clinical reasoning skills to a range of complex and varied patient case mixes, although we often have vacancies for newly qualified practitioners.

Importantly you will be passionate about patient care, high clinical standards and looking for ways to improve the way we run our business. Your collaborative approach to team working will mean you fit in well with our culture, and we really value people who are organised and efficient. We need you to be willing to be flexible in your working patterns and processes and show empathy for vulnerable and sick patients.

A satisfactory Criminal Records Bureau check is essential for this role
