Are you an enthusiastic and motivated Speech and Language Therapist looking to develop your expertise in neurorehabilitation?
We are pleased to offer an exciting opportunity for a Band 6 Speech and Language Therapist to join our friendly and supportive Community Neurological Rehabilitation Team on a fixed-term contract until 31 March 2027.
This role is ideal for an existing Band 6, or an experienced Band 5 ready for career progression. While two years’ post-registration experience is desirable, we welcome applicants with relevant transferable skills.

The role includes managing neurological and non-neurological caseloads, including dysphagia, with access to videofluoroscopy to support clinical decision-making.
We offer strong clinical and managerial support, with a clear commitment to evidence-based practice, CPD, regular supervision, and career development.
The postholder will primarily be based at Dorking Community Hospital, with flexibility to support outpatient clinics, home visits, and care homes across Surrey Downs as required.
A valid UK driving licence and access to a car are essential.

Gweithio i'n sefydliad
Surrey Downs Health and Care deliver care closer to people’s own communities through our Primary Care Networks, Community Hospitals, Specialist Services and our innovative partnership of local NHS organisations.
Surrey Downs Health and Care has a track record of providing person centered care that goes beyond organisational boundaries to do what is best for the individual. This partnership includes:
- The three GP federations GP Health Partners, Dorking Health Care and Surrey Medical Network representing practices that operate in the Surrey Downs area
- Epsom and St Helier’s University Hospitals NHS Trust
- Surrey County Council
Historically, there have been boundary lines between the organisations that provide care to people in their homes, in GP surgeries and in hospitals, but we have always been united in our mission to provide great care to the people who need us.
It’s on those grounds that the Surrey Downs Health and Care was formed – we want local people to receive the care that they need in the right environment. By bringing together our expertise, we can improve patient care and enable local people to access the right support, care and treatment more easily than ever before.
In bringing this partnership together, we are working to the same set of values that will translate into better care for our residents.
