Description

The post holder is responsible for the delivery of high-quality care by providing expert clinical knowledge and skills, effectively acting as team leader to support, supervise and guide junior staff.

The post holder will work with the lead for education and development, and the Theatre Matron, and will lead on all aspects of risk and governance.

Please see attached job description and person specification for details regarding the main duties of the role.

We have already earned our place as one of the world's leading children's hospitals, thanks to innovation and pioneering medical work.

We treat 250,000 young patients a year and safely perform over 13,000 surgical procedures.

Our catchment area has a population of over 7m, stretching from Cumbria, through Lancashire, Merseyside, most of Cheshire, parts of Shropshire, North Wales and the Isle of Man.

Children from virtually every part of the UK, and also from around the world, visit Alder Hey for specialist treatment.

As a result, we are recognised as Centre of Excellence for children with cancer, heart, spinal and brain disease and have been designated as a national centre for craniofacial surgery and epilepsy surgery by the Department of Health.

With a world class £237 million facility opened in October 2015 we are now looking to expand our dedicated theatre team by recruiting motivated, dynamic senior practitioners who are committed to delivering excellent patient care.

As a department we focus on patient safety, excellence and staff well-being so we are looking for individuals who have these values at the heart of all they do.

In return we offer a clearly defined training and development package which includes a supernumerary preceptorship scheme for all new starters.

We have strong links with the local HEI's and provide you with access to a range of post registration modules and pathways including specialist paediatric theatre modules.
