What can this role offer me?

By joining us you’ll be stepping away from NHS pressures and demands, as the Island’s healthcare system is similar but separate to the UK NHS.

You will have access to fantastic in-house training courses and leadership development opportunities. As well as this, you will receive an additional pay allowance when taking part in the combined respiratory and orthopaedics on call rota and when working bank holidays.

Free parking will also be available to you at Nobles Hospital.
