We are seeking an enthusiastic, experienced and motivated Occupational Therapist to join our Allied Health Professional (AHP) Leadership Team within Adult and Older Persons' Mental Health Services across Portsmouth and South East Hampshire. As an AHP Team Lead, you will provide professional and managerial leadership to our AHP Therapy Team and Personality, Trauma and Response (PTR) Team. Working across inpatient and community services, you will support and develop Occupational Therapists, Physiotherapists, AHP Support Staff, Activity Coordinators and Peer Support Workers, helping to deliver safe, effective and person-centred care for adults and older people experiencing mental health difficulties.

This is an exciting opportunity to influence service delivery, support workforce development and contribute to the ongoing growth of AHP services within a large and dynamic mental health division.

In recognition of our commitment to workforce development, innovation and high-quality patient care, our AHP services were honoured with the Chief Allied Health Professions Officer Workforce Award 2025. We continue to build on this success as we strengthen and develop services for adults and older people across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight.
