About Active Neuro

Active Neuro is redefining specialist care for individuals with acquired and traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, and complex neurological conditions. With significant investment across our services, we are combining clinical excellence, advanced rehabilitation technology, and a 24/7 therapeutic model to create the most advanced neurorehabilitation pathway in the UK.

Our approach goes beyond therapy hours—every interaction is therapy. From rapid pre-admission planning and structured inpatient programmes to coordinated post-discharge support, Active Neuro ensures every stage of the patient journey is consistent, personalised, and outcome focused.

At the heart of this model is our comprehensive Multidisciplinary Team (MDT), which includes consultants, nurses, therapists, psychologists, and rehab assistants. This team works together to deliver individualised, goal-driven care, supported by shared outcome measures and real-time insights from our rehabilitation robotics and smart therapy technologies. Our clinicians are empowered to lead change, embed innovation, and ensure rehab is not just delivered, but lived—24 hours a day.

Active Neuro proudly supports both NHS ICB-funded and private patients, offering rehabilitation for a broad range of neurological presentations and complexities.

We’re not just expanding capacity—we’re setting a new benchmark for rehabilitation outcomes, patient experience, and clinical excellence. If you want to be a part of this exciting journey, apply now!

The role:

As a Specialist Physiotherapist, you will:

  • Provide expert assessment and evidence-based treatment for individuals with complex neurological conditions, including traumatic brain injury (TBI), stroke, spinal cord injury, and progressive neurological disorders.
  • Lead on the planning and delivery of physiotherapy interventions, including specialist respiratory and tracheostomy care, ensuring best practice is embedded across the team.
  • Champion clinical excellence within the physiotherapy service and play a key role in wider multidisciplinary team (MDT) development and innovation.
  • Utilise advanced rehabilitation technologies such as Arm Motus M2 Pro, Wrist Motus, Ankle Motus, Kinestica Equio Balance System and EMG-assisted devices to support functional recovery as part of an integrated neurorehabilitation pathway.
  • Drive service development by initiating and implementing physiotherapy protocols, clinical guidelines, and quality improvement initiatives aligned with patient outcomes.
  • Provide supervision, mentorship, and clinical leadership to junior physiotherapy staff, fostering a culture of continuous learning, collaboration, and shared clinical excellence.
  • Build effective relationships with patients, families, carers, and the wider MDT to ensure a cohesive, person-centred approach to rehabilitation.
  • Keep people safe from harm and protect their human rights.

What to look forward to:

  • 25 days plus bank holidays
  • Birthday off
  • Join the Active Learning Hub and benefit from a wide range of e learning and face to face training and development opportunities
  • Active Reward App giving discounts and savings on your weekly shop
  • Free 24 hour confidential Employee Assistance Programme Helpline & App to support with legal, health, wellbeing, relationship and consumer advice
  • A Nest Personal Pension account
  • Access to join a Medicash Health Plan for you and your family to save money on everyday health essentials – like going to the dentist or opticians
  • We recognise outstanding Active Behaviours via the Active Awards programme
  • Enhanced Sick & Maternity Pay benefits
