Full Job Description

Our Immunology team is expanding and we are looking for a new enthusiastic colleague to join our friendly nursing team as a band 6 Specialist Nurse with a focus on Antibody Deficiencies.

We are a big, welcoming team of Specialist Nurses, Clinical Nurse Specialists, Research Nurses and trainee Advance Clinical Practitioners who are passionate about our work providing world leading Immunology care to children and families at a centre of excellence.

We work in close partnership with the medical- and multi-professional teams to treat and support children undergoing complex and innovative treatments like bone marrow transplantations, gene therapy and thymus transplants as well as providing basic immunological management and follow up.

Our work is very rewarding as children experience positive outcomes and we build meaningful relationships with families over time. The post could be flexibly combined with another part-time role and we offer a wide range of learning opportunities which would support you to develop and progress your nursing role within the exciting area of Immunology.

As a band 6 Specialist Nurse you will be working independently to provide care for children with primary and secondary immunodeficiencies with support from band 7 Clinical Nurse Specialist and Team Lead.

We have policies and procedures in place to ensure that all applicants and employees are treated fairly and consistently. We are proud to be accredited as a Disability Confident Employer, a member of Business Disability Forum and a Stonewall Diversity Champion.

We have active and Executive supported BAME, LGBT+ and Allies, Disability and Long-Term Health Conditions and Women's staff networks.
