About the Team
Surrey County Council is committed to transforming the way it delivers adult social care. As part of this transformation, a new Occupational Therapist role has been created within the Enabling Independence Team (EIT).
The primary focus of EIT is to support individuals living with mental health conditions and/or substance misuse issues that have resulted in social care needs. The support we offer is grounded in strengths-based, goal-oriented practice. We believe that by exploring people's goals and aspirations-and recognising the strengths they already have or can access-we can help individuals stay independent for longer and remain connected to their communities.
This new role reflects our belief that the occupational therapy approach aligns closely with the EIT model and that the addition of an OT will enhance the service's ability to support people holistically and creatively.
You'll be joining a multi-skilled team that includes Social Workers, Occupational Therapists, a Senior Occupational Therapist, AMHPs, reablement workers, Assistant Social Care Practitioners, and an Occupational Therapy Assistant Team Manager.
About the Role

You'll help clients build routines, manage their home environments, and gain confidence in everyday tasks, using occupational therapy approaches to foster independence, reduce isolation, and connect them with meaningful community resources.
You'll also provide clinical insight and practical strategies to colleagues handling complex cases, contribute to the development of skills gain programmes, and support team learning through reflective practice and informal training. Your role will involve applying key legislation, including conducting mental capacity assessments, best interest decisions, and specialist mental health evaluations. You'll carry out moving and handling risk assessments, recommend equipment and major adaptations, and deliver rehabilitation interventions that empower individuals to live fulfilling lives.
Safeguarding responsibilities will be part of your remit, ensuring the wellbeing of those in your care. You'll collaborate across health, social care, and voluntary sectors to coordinate community support, including safe hospital discharge planning. Managing a caseload of adults, you'll uphold high standards of person-centred care, engage in supervision and performance reviews, and support innovation through the integration of digital tools like Microsoft Copilot to enhance client engagement and streamline practice.

- Ability to complete person centred and proportionate OT assessments, familiarity with moving and handling equipment such as hoists and stand aids
- Knowledge of current legislation, including the Care Act and the Mental Capacity Act and its application to practice in a social care setting.
- Knowledge of physical and mental health conditions and the likely impact on the individual, carer and family with a good understanding of and ability to assess and manage risk
Surrey has both urban and rural areas and locality based social care workers will be expected to have a valid driving licence to drive in the UK and access to a vehicle and be willing to travel across a wide geographical area.
