Job summary

Are you a passionate Physiotherapist looking for a role where your expertise truly changes lives?

Dunkirk Memorial House are seeking a motivated Physiotherapist to join our dedicated team in a rewarding role supporting our residents to achieve meaningful, functional outcomes that enhance both their physical and emotional wellbeing.

As our Physiotherapist, you will take the lead in delivering high-quality, evidence-based physiotherapy assessments and interventions. You will work holistically—considering physical, psychological, and functional needs—to shape person-centred care plans that empower residents to live as independently and confidently as possible.
This is more than a clinical role. It’s an opportunity to:
  • Make a genuine impact on the lives of older people
  • Support residents living with Dementia to maintain function and dignity
  • Champion a person-centred, strengths-based approach
  • Collaborate within a team committed to excellence in care
Most importantly, you will be passionate about delivering holistic, person-centred interventions that improve both physical and mental wellbeing.
What We’re Looking For
You will:
  • Hold a recognised degree in Physiotherapy
  • Be registered with the HCPC
  • Demonstrate ongoing commitment to Continuous Professional Development
  • Have proven experience working with older adults and individuals living with Dementia
  • Be confident managing a caseload and prioritising effectively
  • Maintain accurate, timely, and professional clinical records
This is a fantastic opportunity for a dedicated professional who wants their work to truly matter. You’ll be part of a supportive team where your clinical skills, compassion, and leadership will help shape outstanding care for our residents.
If you are driven, empathetic, and ready to make a real difference — we would love to hear from you.

  • Free enhanced DBS check
  • Employee Assistance Programme providing confidential counselling, financial and legal advice
  • Exclusive retailer discounts on popular brands
  • Range of courses delivered by learning specialists to support your development goals and objectives
