Description

Imagine being faced with a world of exciting possibilities that could ultimately enable you to support our members and help shape the health policies of the future. As the UK's largest trade union and professional body for nursing, we support over half a million members with unwavering loyalty and total commitment. We represent and develop them, support their practice and lobby on their behalf to make a positive difference to their working lives.

To succeed at the Royal College of Nursing all you need to do is think bigger, better and brighter. And with an attitude like that, anything's possible.

Responsibilities

• As a Pay Delivery Officer, you will use your enthusiasm, positive thinking, and engagement skills to support our members to understand their rights and build confidence to make meaningful change. You'll be working with staff, reps and members in your region to organise activities to raise awareness about the RCN's key pay, terms and conditions campaigns, with a large focus on job evaluation and the rollout of the recently launched suite of new national nursing profiles.

• You will work with members to organise on pay locally and hold employers to account where it is needed. Empowering our members will be your primary role, but you'll also see the possibilities that new members can bring as you work to organise on pay locally in your region.

• You will need a sound knowledge of nursing pay, terms and conditions, as well as skills in organising and energising members to take action. This will include planning projects, events and delivering training.

• Ideally, you would have a good knowledge of job evaluation in the NHS, along with a background in activism, organising or campaigning.

• You will be a well organised self-starter and able to work in a team. Strong relationship‑building skills are key in this role. Whatever your background, you'll be efficient, accurate and show a real member focus in all you do.

What We Offer

• Competitive pay structure with annual pay progression until you reach the top of the salary scale. We normally offer new employees the first point of the salary range, although you may be able to negotiate a higher starting salary depending on your skills, experience and current salary.
• Annual leave up to 32 days plus bank holidays and three additional days for the Christmas break.
• Generous maternity, adoption, paternity, and shared parental leave packages.
• Hybrid working model allowing up to 60% of your working time to be carried out from home. At least 40% of your working time will be spent working in person.
• Impressive range of benefits, a broad range of learning development opportunities and an award‑winning health and wellbeing programme.
• We expect you to look after our members. And we expect you to be rewarded for it.

We are a diverse organisation and understand everyone has different needs and many of our employees enjoy flexible working enabling them to deliver results whilst having a good work life balance.
