Job summary
SPONSORSHIP/VISA: Currently we are unable to provide certificates of sponsorship for this role as it does not meet the Home Office's criteria as this is a Bank position only.
Please note our hospitals are in very rural locations and public transport can be very limited. This may affect you being able to get to the location sites. You will also need to be able to attend the mandatory training as part of the onboarding process.
We are looking for motivated, enthusiastic, forward thinking and patient‑centred individuals to join our excellent nursing team as a bank worker. We are looking for nurses that are able to work well as part of a multi‑disciplinary team, are caring and kind and who wish to develop their clinical and leadership skills. We have bank roles to offer across Powys and you will need to be able to travel to the hospital locations.
We are a motivated team committed to the care of our patients and deliver a high standard of care we can be proud of, for patients from across Powys. We look forward to hearing from nurses that have an interest in palliative care alongside rehabilitation and general medical care.
