Job overview

In this deeply rewarding role, you will provide essential care and support to newborn infants at their most vulnerable, making a meaningful difference from the very start of life. As a Registered Nurse in the NICU, you will care for babies with complex needs while also supporting and guiding their families through what can be an emotional and uncertain time.

Working closely with the Ward Sister and multidisciplinary team, you will assess, plan, and deliver personalised care that reflects both the clinical and holistic needs of each infant and their family. Your compassion, attention to detail, and professional judgement will have a direct and lasting impact on patient outcomes and family experiences.

This role offers a strong sense of purpose, as you build relationships with families, celebrate progress, and provide comfort and reassurance when it matters most. Alongside your clinical responsibilities, you will contribute to a positive team environment, support student learning, and continue to develop your own skills and knowledge.

Every day brings the opportunity to make a genuine difference, making this a highly fulfilling and meaningful career within neonatal care.
