NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde (NHSGGC) is one of the largest healthcare systems in the UK employing around 40,000 staff in a wide range of clinical and non-clinical professions and job roles. We deliver acute hospital, primary, community and mental health care services to a population of over 1.15 million and a wider population of 2.2 million when our regional and national services are included.

### The shift pattern for this post is to be confirmed.

### This is a Fixed term post for 6 months from February 2027.

### Please note the salary is Pro Rata for part time hours.

The post is based at the Royal Hospital for Children, Glasgow, where the duties will primarily be performed.

The Royal Hospital for Children, Glasgow, is one the largest children’s hospitals in the UK and provides a complete range of paediatric specialities in a single institution. The Hospital is unique in Scotland providing critical care to general paediatric medical patients (including metabolic medicine, haematology-oncology, stem cell transplantation); surgical patients (including neurosurgical, craniofacial, trauma patients and renal transplantation); surgery for Congenital Heart Disease (including interventional cardiology, ECMO and complex airway surgery). The unique retrieval service involves advice, support and the transportation of critically ill children by road or air (helicopter / fixed wing) throughout Scotland (including the Islands and remote and rural locations), and the rest of the UK. The appointee will receive the broadest possible exposure to all the services accommodated within the paediatric critical care unit.

Children’s Services within Greater Glasgow & Clyde are co-located with adult and maternity services, including a 76-bedded adult critical care unit and a large tertiary neonatal unit. This enables us to deliver state of the art medical care in purpose-built surroundings where children’s physical and emotional needs have been considered at every stage of the project, building upon our well-established international reputation. In addition, a collaborative enterprise to optimise Scotland’s transport system (ScotSTAR) has resulted in co-location of adult, paediatric and neonatal transport teams on a single site at the Glasgow Airport base.
