We are looking for someone who would love to develop their skills in rehabilitation – is that you? We can offer you a range of clinical experiences including amputees, frailty and falls.

We are seeking an experienced and highly motivated Physiotherapist with a wide range of clinical experience to join our supportive physiotherapy team in Cameron Hospital, Windygates. This inpatient post will be based within our general rehabilitation wards. Through CPD evidence, you should be able to demonstrate experience in working with older adults in a variety of settings, as well as with service development projects.

You must be able to demonstrate a broad range of post graduate experience, including within an NHS setting, and sufficient knowledge and skills to manage a complex caseload.

You may be required to work across Fife, therefore the ability to travel is essential.
