Occupational therapists

Due to a distinct lack of programmes catering for the needs of mental healthcare for children, adults and those living with disabilities, our partners require occupational therapists to help develop and strengthen rehabilitation programmes. Most placements will have a strong emphasis on training local professionals and improving their technical capacity.

You’ll be a qualified occupational therapist with at least three years experience of working with children or adults with mental health issues or disabilities. You’ll need excellent management and organisational skills and training experience is desirable.

You could be working in countries like Thailand, Ghana, Malawi or Guyana.
