We offer a fully funded clinical diploma and independent prescribing, with study leave supported. Opportunities for other post-graduate education & qualifications are available in both leadership and clinical areas. We pride ourselves on the development of our team and encourage progression. While weekend working, late nights and on-call are expected, these are very reasonable and paid at a competitive rate, with a healthy work life balance, supported by senior members of staff.

ASPH is the largest provider of acute hospital services in Surrey serving a population of over 410,000 people in North West Surrey, parts of Hounslow and beyond.
