Job description


Please be advised Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust has made the difficult decision to serve notice on its offender health contracts. Over the coming months, we will be working with NHS England on the transition of the services to Northamptonshire Healthcare Foundation Trust as the new provider. We still need to recruit to these valued positions and welcome your application. But, in line with our values, honesty is important, so please note that if you are successful that in time your recruitment and/or employment would move from Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust to Northamptonshire Healthcare Foundation Trust, who would then be your new employer.
