Are you a Registered Nurse – Adult (RN) who is looking for flexible working arrangements with a supportive, understanding employer?

With this in mind, we are proud to be able to offer a variety of flexible working options and contracts, these include:

  • Fixed Bank (Nurse pool): If your availability is for certain shifts on set days, we could offer guaranteed employment to your requirements.
  • Flexible Bank: The traditional bank agreement where availability is matched to outstanding shifts (across a variety of wards).
  • Fixed-term: An extended period with a defined start and end date where security is required. This could include multiple fixed-term posts over the year and could be on one ward or across a variety of wards.
  • Part-time: Any hours that are worked that are not considered full-time (typically 37.5 hours/week). There may be a limit in the minimum hours worked to maintain skill and competence in certain areas.
  • Term-time: A permanent contract where paid/unpaid leave can be taken during school holidays or other defined periods.
  • Job-sharing: Covering full-time hours with another member of staff (as an example - you prefer nights – they prefer days).
