We are looking for a highly motivated Staff Nurse to join our established, busy 30-bed Surgical Assessment Unit (SAU) at Conquest Hospital as maternity cover for 6 months.

A wide range of staff benefits are available to our staff, including:

• Staff development programs
• Enrolment in the NHS pension scheme
• Auto‑enrolment to the Temporary Workforce Service
• Access to onsite nurseries
• Staff restaurants and accommodation
• Free psychological support through our confidential Employee Assistance Programme
