This is an exciting opportunity to play a pivotal role in an innovative safeguarding partnership, hosted by Sheffield Children's NHS Foundation Trust and based within Sheffield City Council. As the senior health representative within the team, you will help shape and strengthen the health contribution to child protection decision-making across the city.

Working collaboratively with colleagues from social care, police, education, and the wider health system, you will provide expert safeguarding leadership and advice to support timely, informed, and effective responses for children at risk of significant harm. You will champion partnership working, influence strategic and operational practice, and drive continuous improvement to ensure the best possible outcomes for children, young people, and their families.

This unique role offers the opportunity to make a real difference by contributing to a pioneering multi-agency approach that places the needs and safety of children at its heart.

Job summary

The Sterile Services (HSDU) at the Great Western Hospital supports the activity of the operating theatres, endoscopy, clinic areas, community dentistry, podiatry services and external customers.

The individuals who work for us are some of the best available; we now have an opportunity to expand our team. This is not a patient facing role but is very much patient focused and the patient is at the core of everything we do.

The environment is busy and active and you will need to be able to respond to the 'peaks and troughs' of the work to support the service. The instruments are used in operations and so an ability to deal with the sight of blood is necessary.

This role requires you to have current right to work in the UK which enables you to undertake the role without need of sponsorship. Accordingly, we regret that any application will not be considered if this requirement is not met. Given the current UK immigration requirements this role is not eligible for sponsorship, and it is not possible for the Trust to sponsor applicants for a visa for this role

Main duties of the job

The team are responsible for the decontamination, checking, assembly, packing, sterilization and delivery of surgical instrument packs to both internal and external customers and we need more individuals to cover the growing service demand.

You will need to be able to enjoy detailed work, be prepared and able to learn the names of surgical instruments, work within a department that uses standard operating procedures and a Quality Management System and become part of a committed, strong team. We pride our self on our quality and the service we provide for patients.

Any experience of working in a decontamination, cleaning or sterilization environment will be an advantage but not a necessity as we provide a very extensive training package, a full UK driving licence is required as we also provide transportation for some external customers.

Collection, Decontamination, Packing, Sterilizing and dispatch of Medical Devises throughout the Trust site.

About us

We are proud to be part of BSW Hospitals Group - a formal partnership between Great Western Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, Royal United Hospitals Bath NHS Foundation Trust and Salisbury NHS Foundation Trust. With a combined workforce of over 17, 600 colleagues, and budget of 1.6 billion the Group is united by a common purpose to deliver the best possible care to over 1 million people.

We are creating a health and care system that works with the people we care for, reducing the differences people currently face in access, experience and outcomes, improving the experience of our colleagues and tackling shared challenges like sustainability and finances. Every improvement we make across our Group will be guided by what creates the greatest benefit for our colleagues, our patients, our communities and our partners.

Job responsibilities

The post is based at Moorfields Eye Hospital City Road and include work at satellites (St. Anns, Stratford, Northwick Park, Ealing, Potters Bar).

The post holder will be expected to work flexibly to facilitate service provision when colleagues are absent. The lack of many services that would be found in a general hospital means that the anaesthetic service is more than usual relied upon for perioperative patient care in adults and children.
