Staff Nurse-Specialist Oncology Services

NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde is one of the largest healthcare systems in the UK employing around 40,000 staff in a wide range of clinical and non-clinical professions and job roles. We deliver acute hospital, primary, community and mental health care services to a population of over 1.15 million and a wider population of 2.2 million when our regional and national services are included.

Applications from 2023 Newly Qualified Nurse/Midwife, will not be considered for this post. 

You must have a live NMC UK pin in order to be considered for this post.

The shift pattern for this position is as per rota.

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join the Bone Marrow Transplant Team in Glasgow's QEUH. 

We are the National Service for Allogenic Haemopoietic Stem Cell Transplants in Scotland. We serve patients from all 14 Health boards with a population of almost 5.3 million people. Referrals are made by local Haematologists or Oncologists who believe their patient may benefit from a Bone Marrow Transplant. We also offer different types of transplant: Autologous, CORD, Haplo-Identical along with CAR-T therapies 

Previous Haem / Oncology experience would be desirable but not essential. We have a robust induction and education pathway for all staff who will be fully supported with a precetor. We have a designated Clinical Nurse Educator on the ward to facilitate and support all staff.

We are proud to say we have received the 'Greatix Ward' award the last two years running. These nominations came from patients feeding back on their ward experience and staff 'going the extra mile' to support each other, patients, and their relatives / carers.

A valid PIN is required to apply for this position.

Please contact the informal contacts: Senior Charge Nurses for Ward 4B (Bernadette Shanley or Catriona Taylor Bernadette.shanley@ggc.scot.nhs.uk / Catriona.Taylor@ggc.scot.nhs.uk) if you would like to attend an informal information session about the position and support offered to staff within the unit.

NHS Scotland is reducing their full time working week from 37.5 to 37 hours per week from 1 April 2024 but with no change in pay.  This reduction will also be applied pro rata for part time staff.  This advert and any subsequent offer/contract of employment therefore reflects the new working hours.  However, as not all service areas will be able to adopt the 37 hour working week immediately from 1 April 2024, you may be required to work up to an additional 30 minutes per week for a temporary period for which you would be paid until the service you are working in changes rosters or working patterns to accommodate the new reduced working week.  If you have any questions or concerns please contact the Recruiting Board.

Candidates should provide original and authentic responses to all questions within the application form. The use of artificial intelligence (AI), automated tools, or other third-party assistance to generate, draft, or significantly modify responses is strongly discouraged. By submitting your application, you confirm that all answers are your own work, reflect your personal knowledge, skills and experience, and have not been solely produced or altered by AI or similar technologies.

Failure to comply with this requirement may result in your application being withdrawn from the application process.
