The National Rehabilitation Centre (NRC) will transform the future of rehabilitation for people who have experienced injury or illness. Opening in Summer 2025, the NRC will be a new, purpose-built 70-bed facility which will be built on the Stanford Hall Rehabilitation Estate near Loughborough. It is co-located with the Defence Medical Rehabilitation Centre and will share some of the world class rehabilitation facilities. Thanks to an academic partnership led by the University of Nottingham and Loughborough University, research and innovation and training and education in rehabilitation will be embedded at the NRC and central to clinical practice.
We are looking for an ambitious and dedicated occupational therapist to join this journey to
rehabilitation excellence, transforming outcomes for patients. If you were successful, you

benefiting from CPD and development opportunities.
This role will require the successful candidate to work at the New National Rehabilitation
