Network Therapists

Whizz-Kidz is seeking to build on our Network of Therapists around the UK. Network Therapists are qualified Physiotherapists or Occupational Therapists with specialist training and experience in the posture and mobility needs of children and young people and/or wheelchair provision.

With appropriate supervision from one of our Mobility Therapists, you will be expected to assess, prescribe and deliver appropriate mobility equipment to meet the lifestyle needs of the children and families we work with.

We are particularly keen to recruit individuals based in England and Wales but would equally be happy to discuss the role with therapists interested in working for the charity in other parts of the UK.

Network Therapists are paid on an hourly rate (Equivalent Band 7) and allocated work on a case by case basis.
