About the Role
Are you passionate about helping others? Do you have 12+ months of UK-based post-registration experience as an NMC registered nurse (RGN, RMN, RNLD) or HCPC registered physiotherapist or occupational therapist? Are you interested in a role that allows you to use your clinical skills in a different way whilst maintaining your clinical registration?
