Job summary
Emergency Department Assistant. Band 3 Contract : Permanent. Full-Time 37.5 hours per week.
The Whittington Emergency Department (ED) serves the diverse local community of North London in and around Archway and Highgate. We are a busy but very friendly central London ED, seeing more than 100,000 patients in the last year and our recent CQC inspection praised the training and development opportunities for staff. We provide high quality emergency care and maintain an above average performance for initial assessment, ambulance handovers and four-hour performance.
We have very strong nursing leadership and can offer support from our substantial senior team, which includes our ED Matrons who provide a clinical support rota as well as Emergency Nurse Practitioners (ENPs) and senior clinical nurse leaders who provide support on a shift-by-shift basis. We also have a dedicated and innovative practice development nurse, devoted purely to the development of the team of nurses and ED Assistants.
Main duties of the job
You will be given the opportunity to rotate through the department including developing your skills in minor injury in our Urgent Treatment Centre with support of the ENPs, Majors where we assess the majority of ambulance patients, the fast-paced assessment area and will also gain new skills and training in mental health.
We are looking for dedicated, compassionate and dynamic healthcare assistants with acute hospital experience to join our team of Emergency Department Assistants in this fast-paced acute environment. Emergency Department experience isn't essential, as we will provide you with a training plan to develop your skills in specialist techniques such as plastering, cannulation and wound care.
Post holders would be expected to rotate onto nights and weekends on a four-week rota basis.
About us
Whittington Health serves a richly diverse population and works hard to ensure that all our services are fair and equally accessible to everyone. Nowhere is this more obvious than in the way we look after our staff. We aim to employ a workforce which is as representative as possible of this population, so we are open to the value of differences in age, disability, gender, marital status, pregnancy and maternity, race, sexual orientation, and religion or belief. The Trust believes that as a public sector organisation we have an obligation to have recruitment, training, promotion and other formal employment policies and procedures that are sensitive to these differences. We think that by doing so, we are better able to treat our patients as well as being a better place to work.

We are looking for like-minded SLTs to join our growing team! If you are enthusiastic, dynamic and motivated, then we would love you to come and join us at East Kent Hospitals University Foundation Trust!
Main duties of the job
The desired candidate will work closely with members of the multidisciplinary team to deliver patient-centred care to individuals with communication and swallowing difficulties following acquired brain injury. The desired candidate has specialist skills or is working towards obtaining these and is responsible for managing a clinical caseload of patients and maintaining accurate records of work. As a specialist SLT, you will assist in the supervision and training of more junior team members, assistants and students.

About us
Applications for this role should be written by the applicant. If artificial intelligence (AI) programmes are used then the application may be rejected due to this document being an important part of the assessment process.

We are one of the largest hospital trusts in England, with five hospitals and community clinics serving a local population of around 695,000 people.
Our vision is 'great healthcare from great people'. Everything we do is guided by our values: 'People feel cared for, safe, respected and confident that we are making a difference'.

Job description
Job responsibilities
Hywel Dda serves a population of approximately 385,000 people across Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire, covering over a quarter of the landmass of Wales making it one of the most geographically extensive Health Boards in the UK.
This is Emergency Medicine in its truest sense: high acuity decision making, clinical autonomy, strong consultant influence and meaningful impact on local communities.
If you are a newly appointed CCT doctor we will support your transition into independent consultant practice through a strong induction, named consultant support, and the opportunity to develop a portfolio interest.
The Roles
Newly appointed consultants will be supported through a strong induction, named consultant support and opportunities to develop portfolio interests.
We are particularly keen to attract consultants with an interest in Paediatric Emergency Medicine, or those wishing to develop paediatrics as a specialist or portfolio area. There are also opportunities in education and simulation, service improvement, clinical leadership, and specialist interests such as trauma or pre hospital care, alongside regional and system level working.
Emergency Medicine in Hywel Dda
Our Emergency Departments serve diverse urban, rural and remote populations, including areas with significant seasonal tourism pressures and an ageing population with complex needs. Long travel distances mean senior decision making genuinely matters, creating a challenging but professionally rewarding environment where consultant presence has a real impact on patient care. Many colleagues describe this as Emergency Medicine with purpose, where leadership is visible and valued.
Why Hywel Dda?
We prioritise supportive, stable consultant teams, with a strong emphasis on kindness, collaboration and pragmatism. There are genuine opportunities to develop clinical, educational and leadership roles, alongside a clear commitment to worklife balance and wellbeing. Welsh speaking ability is welcomed but not essential. As a University Health Board, Hywel Dda also benefits from strong academic links and opportunities for teaching and professional development.
Life in West Wales
West Wales offers a compelling lifestyle advantage, with stunning coastline, beaches, national parks and excellent outdoor opportunities. Housing is more affordable, commutes are short and communities are strong, with good schools. Many consultants choose Hywel Dda as a long term career and lifestyle option, not a stepping stone.
Who Should Apply
We welcome applications from substantive Emergency Medicine Consultants, CESR (equivalence) candidates and senior doctors approaching consultant level readiness, who value teamwork and want to shape services rather than simply maintain rotas.
Informal Enquiries
Recruitment to West Wales works best through conversation. If you are remotely interested, we strongly encourage an informal discussion or visit.
Vicky HughesClinical Lead for Emergency [email protected]
For full details of the role requirements please see attached Job Description and Person Specification for this vacancy.
Discussions around working pattern will take place during initial job planning, where preferences, requirements and options can be discussed and explored in full.
Hywel Dda University Health Board is committed to providing healthcare services that are patient-centric, ensuring that our community receives the best possible care. We value inclusivity and foster a workplace culture that embraces diversity and supports every individuals contribution towards a welcoming healthcare environment.
We welcome applications from all sections of society and are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive workplace.
