Main duties of the job
Active Neuro, part of Active Care Group, is transforming neurorehabilitation in the UK and we're now looking for a Specialist Occupational Therapist to join our Birmingham team.
In this role, you'll support adults with acquired or traumatic brain injuries, neurological conditions, spinal injuries, and complex needs, helping them rebuild independence, confidence, and quality of life.
We've invested heavily in enhancing the service, including introducing advanced rehabilitation technology such as Luna Robotic EMG, Exo Motus, and Arm Motus. This gives you the tools to deliver creative, integrated therapy focused on what truly matters to each person - whether that's baking, reconnecting with art, gardening, or everyday living tasks.
You'll be part of a supportive network across Active Neuro, sharing expertise, accessing mentorship, and benefiting from personalised CPD tailored to your clinical interests - from functional rehabilitation to cognitive and perceptual retraining. You'll also have opportunities to collaborate with organisations like Headway and the Spinal Injuries Association and engage with wider innovations in the neurorehabilitation community.
