Thank you for showing an interest in working with us at Epsom and St Helier - a family of more than 7,000 colleagues.
We are truly an integrated health and care Trust. In simple terms, that means that as well as the services we provide at our acute care hospitals (Epsom in Surrey and St Helier nearby in south west London) we work with local GPs, mental health services, community providers and local authorities, with the joint aim of preventing local people from becoming unwell, and when they do, that they receive the right care, in the right place, with the right support.
We also work as part of the St George's, Epsom and St Helier Hospital and Health Group, with a shared leadership and increasing collaboration to develop stronger clinical and corporate services between two major providers serving Surrey and South West London.
These partnerships are at the forefront of joining together health and care for local people, and part of the national NHS ambition to provide the best care locally.
We are committed to making all of our workplaces, great places to work, with the right support and culture to help you excel.
