Job description

The medicine division provides comprehensive medical services accessible to all patients in our local area. From our emergency department through to the acute medical team, we provide urgent and emergency care supported by our diverse specialty, pharmacy and the therapy teams. Working together we offer a patient centered approach to our care, pursuing the delivery of a strong, safe and high quality level of healthcare.

Do you want to make a real difference to our patients and join us at an exciting time? We are looking for exceptional individuals to join our team as Staff Nurses at East Surrey Hospital. There are excellent opportunities for career progression and the hospital provides a friendly and welcoming environment that allows individuals to grow and develop professionally whilst providing high standards of person centered nursing care.

East Surrey Hospital has some of the lowest vacancy rates in England, however, due to expansion we have opportunities for Staff Nurses to join our CQC rated outstanding Trust in the medicine division. Following a period of reconfiguration and under the leadership of our new Divisional Chief Nurse – Elaine Hextall, we have openings for Staff Nurses in a variety of specialties including ED, cardiology, respiratory, acute medicine, care of the elderly and the discharge unit. Surrey and Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust operates a 24-hour service, 365 days a year. As such, all nursing, clinical, and operational roles may involve working on a 24/7 shift basis, unless otherwise specified during the recruitment process. We are proud of our diverse and inclusive workforce and actively encourage applications irrespective of age, disability, gender, race and ethnicity, religion or belief and sexual orientation. We can make reasonable adjustments and offer support and advice in a variety of ways throughout the application process.

Successful candidates will be appointed to the first pay step within the band when they start with the Trust (unless they have previous relevant NHS continuous service), thereafter individuals will progress up the pay steps in accordance with NHS Agenda for Change (AfC) terms and conditions. For part time roles you will receive a pro rata salary payment based on the appropriate pay step/point and hours worked in accordance with AfC and all medical and dental terms and conditions.

Note: Some vacancies may receive a high volume of applications. In such cases, the vacancy may close earlier than the advertised closing date. We encourage you to apply as soon as possible.

We take our responsibilities to the environment extremely seriously and have an ambitious Green Plan that we're delivering. Actions include having uniforms made from recycled plastic, 100% renewable electricity and planting 150 trees at East Surrey Hospital. Read our plan here.

We provide emergency and non-emergency services to the residents of East Surrey, North-East West Sussex, and South Croydon, including the major towns of Crawley, Horsham, Reigate and Redhill; a community of over 535,000 people. We provide acute and complex services and a range of outpatient, diagnostic services whilst Crawley Hospital and Horsham in West Sussex and Caterham Dene Hospital and Oxted Health Centre in Surrey provide less complex planned services.

• Winners of Health Service Journal Acute Trust of the year award 2021.
