Main duties of the job

This is an exciting time to join the team at Southampton's Children's Hospital. We are offering Rotation posts across our Children's Hospital for experienced paediatric staff Nurses to join our team.

Are you an experienced paediatric staff nurse ready for a new challenge? Would you like to work for an innovative forward-thinking hospital? Every patient is special to us, which means every nurse who cares for them must be too.

Southampton's Children's Hospital is a 115 bedded hospital catering for both local and regional children from the Wessex Region including the Channel Islands.

Our Children's Hospital prides itself on providing a variety of specialist tertiary services and therefore rotations can include any of the following areas within critical care for children incorporating:

• Paediatric ICU


• Neonatal Intensive Care


• Paediatric HDU


• Oncology


• Neurology and Neurosurgery


• Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery


• Orthopaedics and Major Trauma


• Urology


• Nephrology


• ENT Surgery


• Outpatients


• Children's Day Unit JADW

The Children's Hospital has a dedicated Children's Emergency Department and is a Paediatric Major Trauma Centre.

We are looking for highly motivated colleagues who have excellent care values and a strong sense of team spirit. We are a friendly, welcoming, and supportive team and there are opportunities to work across departments gaining clinical leadership and management skills along the way.

About us

University Hospital Southampton is one of England's largest acute teaching Trusts, offering a wide range of learning and development opportunities to support your career aspirations.

Located on the south coast with an international airport and direct rail links to London, Southampton offers an ideal setting to live and work, with the New Forest, South Downs and Jurassic Coast.

We believe that using technology wisely shows strong time management and commitment to innovation. However, personalizing your recruitment application to highlight your unique skills and experiences is crucial. Relying too heavily on generic, AI-generated content instead of drawing from your own strengths and accomplishments may lead to your application being rejected if multiple candidates present identical or similar information.

At UHS we're committed to providing a flexible working environment where possible. Whether you are balancing family, study, or your wellbeing with your career, we want to support you so you can help our patients.

At UHS, we proudly champion individuality, recognizing that outstanding care is only possible with a diverse, inclusive team. We're committed to creating an anti-racist, anti-discriminatory environment where everyone feels valued, safe, and empowered to make a meaningful impact in our communities. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds, identities, and experiences to join us in building a healthcare community where everyone can belong, thrive, and contribute.
