Band 5 nurse - Fulltime

We are currently looking for a motivated band 5 Nurse to join our team within the Cardiovascular, Thoracic & Oncology Outpatients Department who works well in a team, has excellent communication skills, can work under pressure, deal with situations as they arise and be able to apply problem solving skills.

Our department facilitates outpatient clinics for cardiology, cardiac surgery, adult congenital heart, thoracic and vascular clinics and oncology/haematology clinics. Many of the clinics held are ‘one-stop’ clinics meaning that not only does the patient have a consultation with a doctor they also are seen by the nurse practitioner / case manager team for pre-assessment, completion of X-rays, ECG’s and ECHO’s / Spirometry if necessary in readiness for admission for their procedure.

We also support a range of clinics requiring specialist dressings to include the vascular clinics and specialist oncology clinics.

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.

Do you have cardiac, vascular, thoracic or oncology experience?
