Our client is seeking an experienced and resilient Occupational Therapist to support increased service demand following the successful rollout of the Home First contract based in Wiltshire. This role is ideal for an OT who thrives in fast‑paced, acute discharge environments and enjoys collaborative working across health and social care.
About the Role
You will work in close partnership with staff across both local acute hospital trusts — Great Western Hospital (GWH) and Royal United Hospital (RUH) — to support safe, timely and effective hospital discharge into Wiltshire’s Reablement Service.

Working Pattern & Hybrid Setup
- 37 hours per week
- 50% of admin time must be completed in the office (County Hall, Trowbridge)
- Remaining time split between WFH and community visits
- Example: If 3 days are spent on community visits, you would then complete 1 day in the office + 1 day working from home
