About Us

We’ve spent over 40 years helping people die in peace and with dignity. Combining compassion with clinical expertise we provide patients with the best possible care at the end of their lives.

We’re here for the people around our patients too—those closest to them. Before, during and after a bereavement we provide support that’s remembered forever.

We think its that unforgettable support that inspires people to give back to St Peters—to fundraise for us, donate, volunteer. We’re not exaggerating when we say we couldn’t do what we do without our wonderful supporters. We really can’t thank them enough.

We want to help many more people to die well, and we’re doing this by teaching others. As a centre of educational excellence we share our skills with other health professionals helping the NHS and care homes to provide better end‑of‑life care.

We’re here for all, for free, forever.

• NHS equivalent salaries
• Generous holiday entitlement and recognition for previous NHS service (up to 33 days for 10 years service)
• Continuation in the NHS pension scheme for existing members
• Recognition of previous NHS service for sick pay

There are many benefits to working at St Peters including:

• 27 days holiday plus bank holidays pro rata. This increases the longer you’re with us
• Competitive salary
• Pension with employer‑matched contributions up to 6%
• Enhanced sick pay rising with service to a maximum of 12 weeks full and 12 weeks half pay.
• Birthday leave – a day off in the month of your birthday
• Ability to buy or sell up to three days of annual leave per year
• Volunteer leave
• Life insurance scheme

Life is busy and we all want to enjoy a healthy work / life, so we offer flexible working hours and, if practical for your role, we also offer hybrid working.

You can split your hours between your home and our offices in Brentry and Long Ashton. We think this is a good way to work—it gives you the convenience of working from home and the camaraderie of being with colleagues in the office.

Equity and Diversity

We want our teams to reflect the diversity of our community and we want everyone to feel that they belong. That’s why we’ve joined ENEI: Employers Network for Equality and Inclusion. This is a UK‑based not‑for‑profit organisation that helps employers build and maintain diverse teams and inclusive cultures. We’re really pleased to have ENEI supporting us on our equity, diversity and inclusion journey.

Just as we offer care to all we welcome applications from everyone. We want to hear from you regardless of your age, disability, religion or belief, sex, race, sexual orientation, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity.
