Description
Job Overview
University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust is delighted to offer a fantastic opportunity to work with us.
Please see below for detailed job description of the role.
Main duties of the job
Fed up with weekends, nights or shifts? Looking for a change in direction? This may be just the opportunity you have been looking for.
Applications are invited for a part-time Staff Nurse in Occupational Health to join our large multi-disciplinary Occupational Health and Wellbeing service. This is a replacement post and is based at University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust (UHS). It is a great opportunity to progress your career in occupational health and previous experience in Occupational Health is not essential. We have a comprehensive 5-weeks in house training package with ongoing support after completion.
Working for our organisation
University Hospital Southampton is one of England's largest acute teaching Trusts, offering a wide range of learning and development opportunities to support your career aspirations.
Located on the south coast with an international airport and direct rail links to London, Southampton offers an ideal setting to live and work, with the New Forest, South Downs and Jurassic Coast.
We believe that using technology wisely shows strong time management and commitment to innovation. However, personalizing your recruitment application to highlight your unique skills and experiences is crucial. Relying too heavily on generic, AI-generated content instead of drawing from your own strengths and accomplishments may lead to your application being rejected if multiple candidates present identical or similar information.
At UHS we’re committed to providing a flexible working environment where possible. Whether you are balancing family, study, or your wellbeing with your career, we want to support you so you can help our patients.
At UHS, we proudly champion individuality, recognizing that outstanding care is only possible with a diverse, inclusive team. We’re committed to creating an anti-racist, anti-discriminatory environment where everyone feels valued, safe, and empowered to make a meaningful impact in our communities. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds, identities, and experiences to join us in building a healthcare community where everyone can belong, thrive, and contribute.
What You'll Do
Detailed job description and main responsibilities
The successful applicant will be responsible for and involved in doing pre-employment / pre-placement occupational health screening, immunisation screening, dealing with sharps injuries and contamination incidents, delivering vaccination programmes, undertaking health surveillance such as skin checks and participating in outbreak investigations and meetings. The department is open Monday – Friday 08:00 – 16:00. Most of the duties are based at the University of Southampton Hospital site but you may be required to work at other sites at planned times according to the needs of our clients.
What We’re Looking For
The successful applicant should be a registered nurse and post-registration clinical experience. Our ideal candidate will be an enthusiastic nurse with good communication and IT skills, who wants to work in a multidisciplinary team and is interested in occupational health.
Additional information
We strongly recommend that any interested applicants contact us for further information or an informal visit to gain a better understanding of the role before applying.
