An exciting opportunity has risen for a self-motivated and dynamic individual to join our education team to assist with the planning, organisation, and delivery of our undergraduate medical student training programme.
We are looking for an experienced Registered Nurse with a keen interest in education and is dedicated to the clinical development of medical students and staff to provide safe, high-quality care to patients.
You will need to be able to work autonomously, have excellent communication and organisation skills, be able to demonstrate an ability to teach, assess and develop others, an ideal opportunity for those who want to develop further within education.
At the heart of everything we do are our core values: Include, Respect, and Improve. We encourage you to embrace these values throughout the recruitment process and in your role with us.
Main duties of the job
You will deliver a clinical skills and practical procedures programme to undergraduate and postgraduate trainees.
You will be responsible for teaching a wide range of practical procedures and develop teaching methods in all aspects of clinical skills.
You will assist and actively participate in simulation teaching with the simulation faculty.
This post supports the delivery of high quality medical education, through the organisation, co-ordination and management of educational learning events.
As a Clinical Skills Trainer you will be a registered Registered Nurse delivering clinical training to our undergraduate medical students, which includes assessing students in clinical practice, and other multi-professional staff within the Trust.
You will have involvement with Simulation training for both undergraduate and postgraduate medical programmes.
Working for our organisation
At East and North Hertfordshire NHS Trust, we are proud of the range of general and specialist services we provide and our 6,000 or so dedicated staff ensure our patients get the best care. Our ability to be flexible and innovative in the way in which we work and deliver our services to our catchment has never been more important than it is now.
We run the following hospitals:
The Lister Hospital, Stevenage
New Queen Elizabeth II (New QEII), Welwyn Garden City

Mount Vernon Cancer Centre (MVCC), Northwood
We have ambitious plans to become an outstanding, patient-led Trust where dedicated staff provide high-quality, compassionate care to our patients. We continue to undergo significant transformation and our staff and patients are at the heart of delivering this ambitious agenda.
We are committed to a positive work life balance for our employees. This means that any employee is entitled to seek to work flexible working patterns and we are committed to listen and consider all requests. Such requests, of course, have to be made and considered formally, and will need to be balanced against service needs, but our starting point will always be to find ways to support making them happen.
