Description

Lewisham / South East London | Full-Time | Monday–Friday, 8:00–16:30

Are you an experienced Paramedic looking to transition into or grow within a dynamic primary care environment? We're expanding our clinical team and looking for a proactive, confident, and committed Paramedic Practitioner to help us deliver exceptional care to the community.

What You'll Be Doing:

• Provide urgent and routine patient care in a face-to-face, telephone, and home visit capacity.
• Work independently as a sole practitioner, while still being a valuable part of a supportive team.
• Tackle a hefty and varied workload with flexibility and resilience.
• Embrace the opportunity to complete the First Contact Practitioner (FCP) course if not already certified – this is a key part of the role.
• Rotate across sites or focus on a dedicated site in Lewisham.

What We’re Looking For:

• BSc-qualified Paramedic (essential – no diplomas, apprenticeships or equivalents).
• 3–5 years post-grad clinical experience, ideally with exposure to primary care settings.
• Independent Prescriber status is a bonus – or willingness to train with us.
• Resilient, adaptable, and autonomous with excellent patient care instincts.

International Applicants Welcome:

We welcome applications from Antipodean paramedics (South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, etc.) with an Ancestral Visa or British/Commonwealth passport. We are certified to sponsor a working visa if required. You'll need a BSc + 3 years’ experience as a minimum. We’ll support your transition into the UK Primary Care system.

Career Progression:

Whether you're aiming to become an FCP Paramedic, a Prescriber, or progress towards Advanced Care Paramedicine, we’ll invest in your training and development. We ask for a minimum 2-year commitment if you're completing the FCP course with us.
