Job summary

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a motivated and enthusiastic nurse to join our multidisciplinary team as a Specialist Nurse.

This role has been developed as part of our service sustainability and succession planning, supporting the delivery of high-quality care to children and young people and their families with haemophilia and other bleeding disorders.

GOSH has the largest Haemophilia Comprehensive Care for children in the UK and is one of the five largest in Europe. We specialise in complications of haemophilia and other bleeding disorders such as the management of inhibitors. We also look after children with inherited thrombotic tendencies, which are less likely to cause problems before adulthood. The department receives referrals from other parts of south-east England and further afield in the UK.

The successful applicant will have support and opportunity to work closely with the Clinical Nurse Specialists (CNS) and medical teams within the department.

o supporting the inpatient nursing team when children and young people with bleeding disorders are admitted; and

o contributing to service development and quality improvement initiatives.

To be considered for this role you must have current registration with the NMC and excellent CYP clinical skills. It is desirable to have demonstrable knowledge and experience within haemophilia - bleeding disorders. This is a challenging and demanding role, and we are looking for an individual who is ready for the next move in their career and demonstrates a desire to deliver a positive patient experience.

We actively challenge discrimination, dismantle barriers and embed equity across all aspects of our workforce, including recruitment, progression and development.
