    About us

    Located on rolling hills and dissected by river valleys, Sheffield is one of the greenest and most wooded cities in Europe. More than a third of the city lies inside the beautiful Peak District National Park, and it is virtually surrounded by open countryside.

Sheffield also offers a perfect mix of vibrant city life, culture spots, and beautiful outdoor spaces right on your doorstep - including the Peak District National Park. With excellent schools, transport links, and employment opportunities, it's a lovely place to make your home and raise a family.

    Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is one of the UK's busiest and most successful NHS foundation trusts. This is an exceptional opportunity to join an award winning and internationally recognised team, with a focus on innovation, research and high-quality care, as well as family friendly working, and we are keen to discuss with individuals about how we can support their ambitions.
