On 1st February 2021 the Royal Brompton and Harefield Hospitals became part of Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust - a truly once-in a generation development. Together, we are taking our first steps towards our vision of creating a brand-new centre of excellence, which will be the global leader in the research into and treatment of heart and lung disease in patients from pre-birth to old age. We are developing some exciting plans and we want you to join us - so come and help to change the shape of healthcare for our heart and lung patients world-wide.

Our Trust is known throughout the world for its expertise, research and standard of care and you'll quickly realize you are working alongside committed healthcare experts, who want to constantly develop the care that we give to patients.

Harefield Hospital Theatre is a 5 operating theatre suite facilitating cardio-thoracic surgery as well as supporting the heart and lung transplantation as well as a range of artificial heart devices program. We also support the procurement of organs for transplantation for our centre as well as for other cardio-thoracic centers in the country. As with all theatre environments, each day with us has its own special demands as we have a variety of theatre activity on the day. If you're a highly motivated and experienced cardiac/cardiothoracic Scrub Practitioner who is willing to be part of our highly experienced team, to continue to drive our service forward, you'll fit right in at Team Harefield.

This role requires an experienced cardio-thoracic scrub practitioner (one year minimum) who is motivated and hardworking. As your confidence and knowledge grows you will take an active role in mentoring more junior members of staff and student nurses/ODP's and undertake appraisal when requested. You must have NMC or HPC registration and have worked for at least one year in the theatre environment.

Successful candidates will commence at Band 5 until all competencies are achieved and full on-call duties are undertaken. This will result in a move to a Band 6. Theatres at Harefield have a strong culture of multi skilling for the personal and professional development of staff. We look forward to considering your application as motivation and a drive to provide the best service are our main considerations.
