This is an excellent opportunity for a strong healthcare leader looking to step into a predominantly managerial role with operational responsibility, clinical oversight, and the opportunity to influence service quality and performance.
The successful candidate will oversee a modern renal clinic with a large amount of dialysis stations operating extended hours, supported by Deputy Managers and an established multidisciplinary team.
The Role

* Reporting into senior leadership and working closely with the General Manager
* Supporting staff development, supervision, and training
* Ensuring compliance with CQC, infection control, H&S, and clinical governance standards
* Building strong relationships with consultants, stakeholders, and referring organisations
* Driving continuous improvement initiatives across the service
About You

You will ideally have :
* NMC registration (Level 1 Nurse)
* Previous experience managing clinical teams and healthcare operations
* Strong understanding of governance, audits, and quality compliance
* Experience with workforce management, budgets, and service performance
* Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
* Haemodialysis or renal experience would be highly advantageous, although experienced nursing managers from other backgrounds may also be considered
What’s on Offer

* Monday–Friday working pattern
