This is a unique role combining hands‑on clinical practice with clinical development, governance, practitioner education, treatment protocol development and aesthetic technology.
The position offers an opportunity to progress beyond a traditional treatment‑based nursing role and play an important part in shaping clinical standards across our growing clinic group and the wider 3D Aesthetics business.

We also operate our own 3D Aesthetics Clinics in Leamington Spa and Knowle, with a third clinic planned for Cheltenham.
As both sides of the business continue to grow, we are looking for a Registered Nurse who can act as an important link between real‑world clinical practice, practitioner education, clinical governance and aesthetic technology development.

- Supporting the clinical development and introduction of new technologies.
- Contributing to clinical case studies, trials, white papers and documentation of patient outcomes.

This may include:
