    Every day, over 600 seriously ill children from across the UK arrive for life-changing treatments.

    And every day, the brightest minds come together to achieve pioneering medical breakthroughs that change the lives of thousands of children - and change the world.

    This extraordinary hospital has always depended on charitable support to give seriously ill children the best chance to fulfil their potential.

    Without donations, Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity can't help fund ground-breaking research, advanced equipment, child and family support services, and the rebuilding and refurbishment of wards and medical facilities.

    Our staff help to raise these vital funds for the hospital. A better future for seriously ill children starts with you.

    A more diverse workforce will enable us to deliver even more impact and we particularly encourage applications from communities which are under-represented in the charity.

    As a Disability Confident Committed Employer we are more than happy to make reasonable adjustments wherever possible throughout the recruitment process.

    You are encouraged to include a cover letter with your application and should refer to the 'GOSH Charity Pack' on the Careers Page of our website before you apply.
