Job Description:

Children’s Occupational Therapist (Cornwall & Devon)


Are you a passionate OT looking for more clinical freedom and a better work-life balance? We are looking for an empathetic, reliable, and skilled Children’s Occupational Therapist to join us on a self-employed basis across Cornwall and Devon.


The Role


This is a flexible, part-time position designed to fit around your existing commitments—whether that’s another job, a busy family life, or personal projects. You choose your own hours and manage your own diary.


Rate: Excellent private rates of pay.


Location: Community-based (Cornwall/Devon)


Contract: Self-employed (with potential for permanent employment in the future).


What We’re Looking For



  • We need someone who doesn’t just see “patients,” but sees the child and the family behind them.

  • Sensory Expertise: Ideally, you have specific knowledge or training in sensory integration/processing.

  • Personality: You are friendly, approachable, and able to build quick rapport with children.

  • Reliability: As a community-based therapist, being trustworthy and dependable is non-negotiable.

  • Logistics: You must have a full UK driving license and access to your own vehicle.


Why Join Us?



  • Total Flexibility: Work when you want, where you want.

  • Growth Potential: This starts as a self-employed role, but we are looking for someone who might want to grow into a permanent position as we expand.

  • Competitive Pay: We value your expertise and pay significantly above standard rates to reflect that.


How to Apply


If you’re ready to reclaim your schedule while making a real difference in children’s lives, I’d love to chat.
