Please see below for detailed job description of the role. We are looking for a highly motivated and interested registered practitioner (Nurse or Operating Department Practitioner) who would like to join our dynamic team at Princess Anne Hospital. We specialise in Obstetric & Gynaecology (benign & oncology services, fertility treatment) and breast surgeries and pride ourselves on having a multi‑disciplinary team offering services to women and newborn.

We believe that using technology wisely shows strong time management and commitment to innovation. However, personalising 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, recognising 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.
We are looking for highly skilled practitioners who have an interest in working in theatres. Previous theatre experience is desirable. Dual skills in scrub and anaesthetics will also be a good advantage but are not required.
