We are looking for a compassionate, motivated Registered Children's Nurse to join our Children's Community Nursing Team, supporting children and young people with a wide range of health needs, helping them receive high-quality care closer to home and reduce hospital admissions and attendances.

We offer a supportive environment with excellent learning and development opportunities, a comprehensive education programme, and regular clinical and safeguarding supervision.

As an added bonus, you will also rotate into our Special School Nursing Team when required, gaining valuable experience with children with complex health needs within an education setting — a great way to broaden your clinical skillset.

We welcome applications from nurses enthusiastic about providing great care, working collaboratively, and practising autonomously.

- Support the learning and development of student nurses and other colleagues.

- Maintain high standards of clinical practice, safeguarding and professional accountability.

This role offers the opportunity to build strong relationships with children and families, develop specialist community nursing skills, and make a meaningful impact on the lives of local children and young people every day.
