### Job overview

At present, University Hospitals of North Midlands is unable to offer visa sponsorship for Band 2 to Band 4 roles, as these positions do not meet the minimum salary and skill thresholds required under UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) regulations.

You’ll be part of a rotational team, delivering high-quality care across all sites.

We’re looking for individuals who are passionate about patient-centred care, excellent communicators, and adaptable team players ready to make a difference in a dynamic, multi-site environment.

### Main duties of the job

This is a hands-on, fast-paced role with a wide variety of responsibilities—including data entry, front desk duties, direct patient care, supporting Diagnostic Radiographers, managing clinical stock, and keeping our departments spotless and well-organised.
