Our mission is to empower and enable individuals with Down syndrome to achieve their full potential and lead fulfilling lives.

We are seeking a passionate and experienced Speech & Language Manager to join our nationwide team. The Speech & Language Manager will play a crucial role in supporting our therapists across the country, facilitating knowledge sharing, skills development, and performance and service improvement.

You will be responsible for the development of best practice, evidence-led therapy services across Down Syndrome Ireland. You will oversee the current services, which are comprised of highly experienced therapists based DSI branches, and specialised therapists working within the private sector who are contracted to provide services in DSI branches.

You will gather statistics regarding therapy provision and therapy outcomes, collaborating with the National Research and Support Specialist to add to the current evidence base. You will document best practice and develop information and case studies which can be used to advocate for improvements in state services.

You will identify topics for CPD based on feedback from therapists and arrange an annual Down syndrome SIG meeting to address these topics and to share research and good practice.

There will be an annual budget for CPD, and peer supervision will be facilitated.
