Jo Vallom-Smith

I am a Specialist Occupational Health Occupational Therapist with over a decade of experience working independently across diverse workplace settings. I deliver complex management referrals, functional capacity evaluations, and vocational rehabilitation, providing clear, evidence-based recommendations that support sustainable return to work and effective workplace adjustments.

My expertise includes mental health, neurodiversity, musculoskeletal conditions, and workplace ergonomics. Having worked with the UK’s largest OH provider, advised at national policy level, and contributed to governance and professional development through RCOT, SOM, and FOM, I bring both clinical depth and strategic insight.

I excel in assessment, case management, and high-quality report writing, offering a professional, reliable service for organisations seeking independent occupational health input.
