Are you a passionate and dedicated Speech and Language Therapist looking for a dynamic opportunity to make a real impact?

Join Sheaf Training Centre, an outstanding education provider committed to delivering exceptional support to individuals with high needs. We are seeking a talented Speech and Language Therapist to join our team and contribute to the transformative work we do.

Sheaf Training is at the forefront of providing outstanding support to individuals with complex needs, promoting independence, and enhancing lives. We pride ourselves on creating an inclusive and supportive environment where every team member plays a crucial role in making a difference.

As a Speech and Language Therapist at Sheaf Training, you will have the opportunity to work with a diverse group of individuals, tailoring your expertise to meet their unique communication needs. This role offers a dynamic and collaborative environment where innovation and creativity are encouraged to achieve positive outcomes for those we support.

We are investing in our workforce and are promoting opportunities to our under-represented groups.  We value equality, diversity and inclusion and are focused on increasing the diversity of our workforce, particularly the number of Black, Asian, Minority Ethnic, Disabled and LGBTQ+ people, so that our teams reflect the communities in the city we serve. We are also supporting staff with unpaid caring responsibilities to work flexibly.
