Job description

If you are looking to redirect your career as a nurse or paramedic, we provide a dynamic and innovative pathway with opportunities for progression and extensive training.

The role requires the flexibility to work not only in your base Custody suite but across an assigned region in the Police Custody Suites and Force area.

As a certified nurse or paramedic, you can pursue a career within the criminal justice system, aiding some of society's most vulnerable individuals. We believe in the right to healthcare for all, placing their health and wellbeing at the heart of our approach to care. We seek individuals eager to provide exemplary care, take pride in being part of a team that shares this vision, and have a genuine enthusiasm for developing clinical, forensic, and broader skills.

In collaboration with the Police, you will serve in custody suites, delivering healthcare to detainees. We are dedicated to ensuring the safety of detainees with round-the-clock coverage in the custody suites, in line with a schedule agreed upon with our client.

As well as a Scottish Widows Pension, you will qualify for a Blue Light card and associated shopping and leisure discounts. There is also the Mitie MiDeals: a discount scheme with over 3000 offers from your favourite retailers, leisure, and utilities companies.

Health and wellbeing benefits include a Virtual GP service for appointments, and an Employee Assistance Programme for financial, relationship, or mental health issues.

The Mitie Choices programme offers options to purchase extra Holiday Entitlement, Dental Insurance, Health cash plans, critical illness cover, and discounted gym memberships.

Additionally, share investment schemes like Save-as-Earn (SAYE) and a Share Incentive Plan are available, including a free share for every employee.

The Mitie Stars programme awards vouchers for exceptional performance, recognition across the company, and bonuses potentially worth hundreds or thousands of pounds.
