We are seeking an experienced and highly skilled Night Nurse Practitioner (NNP) to join our dedicated Hospital at Night (H@N) team.

This permanent opportunity has arisen due to a vacancy within the service, with an anticipated start date of end of September 2026.

As a key member of the H@N team, you will provide expert clinical leadership and advanced nursing practice across the Trust throughout the night, supporting a service that operates 7 days a week from 19:30 to 07:30.

The successful candidate will bring a broad range of clinical experience, advanced knowledge and highly developed nursing skills.
