Guy's and St Thomas' is one of the largest hospital trusts in the country, with a staff of over 9,500, a turnover of over £800m and a million patient contacts a year.

The Trust is made up of two of London's oldest and most well known teaching hospitals. The hospitals have a long history, dating back almost 900 years, and have been at the forefront of medical progress and innovation since they were founded. Both hospitals have built on these traditions and continue to have a reputation for excellence and innovation.

If you're looking for a place where you'll be encouraged to develop the rewarding career you really want, you'll find it at Guy's and St Thomas'. As one of the UK's largest and most distinguished Trusts, we're renowned for innovative, excellent care - so we really value the benefits your specialist skills will bring to us.

This is no ordinary occupational health nursing position. Joining a highly skilled team in a well-equipped suite of consulting rooms, you'll enjoy a unique and stimulating mixture of NHS and private sector work. A real variety of experience is guaranteed every day. As a Specialist Nurse Adviser, you'll work closely with our team of doctors, nurses, administrators and counsellors, and the exposure you'll get to a broad range of clinical specialities is second to none.

We encourage you to develop new expertise of your own, offering outstanding training and development opportunities. We're a strong and supportive team and in this supervisory role you will be managing your own workload. As we're an extremely busy unit, a flexible, adaptable approach is a must. You'll have ample, proven occupational health nursing experience already but you must be ready to embrace a challenging, highly responsible role.
