Salary competitive
We’re looking for a Bank Theatre Practitioner to join our Endoscopy team at The Harborne Hospital in Birmingham. Opened in January 2024, The Harborne Hospital is a purpose‑built, 50-bed, multi‑speciality private hospital located on the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham campus. As part of HCA Healthcare UK, you’ll work in a modern clinical environment supported by advanced technology, contemporary endoscopy facilities and experienced multidisciplinary teams. The hospital’s close collaboration with University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Trust creates a well‑connected setting with a varied case mix and high clinical standards.
As a Bank Endoscopy Theatre Practitioner, you’ll play an important role in supporting service delivery through flexible, ad hoc shifts. This opportunity is particularly well suited to experienced practitioners who are confident working autonomously and supporting high‑quality endoscopy lists. Senior‑level experience is ideal, especially for colleagues who enjoy taking ownership, supporting smooth patient flow and working with minimal supervision. You’ll work across the endoscopy pathway, helping to deliver safe, efficient care while providing a calm and reassuring experience for patients. For colleagues who enjoy working at The Harborne Hospital, there may be opportunities to progress into permanent roles in the future, should these become available.
What you’ll do:
* Support the delivery of safe, high‑quality endoscopy procedures within a theatre environment
* Assist clinicians during diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopy procedures
* Prepare, check and maintain equipment in line with infection prevention and decontamination standards
* Monitor and support patients throughout their endoscopy journey, maintaining dignity and comfort
* Maintain accurate and timely clinical documentation while working closely with the multidisciplinary team
What you’ll bring:
* Current professional registration with NMC or HCPC
* Proven experience in endoscopy or theatre practice within NHS or private healthcare
* Senior‑level experience or the confidence to work autonomously within an endoscopy setting is ideal
* A sound understanding of endoscopy procedures, patient pathways and safety standards
* Strong communication skills and the ability to work flexibly within a multidisciplinary team
