“The work is varied and very busy – there is never a dull moment. The best thing about our work is that together we make a massive difference to patient lives.”
We care about your career
We are an exciting place to work. As an integrated trust your career could span hospital and community health. You could work in one of our specialist areas of excellence, such as our stroke service which is one of the best in the region. We are also a regional centre for burns and plastics, and our National Spinal Injuries Centre is famous across the globe.
We have a reputation for teaching and training excellence. There are modern, well equipped education centres and a library on our hospital sites with an active programme of continuing education. Our education, learning and development team continue to build both internal development programmes and engage with external education partners to ensure we are developing the right people in the right way.
The Trust also ranked second for medium acute trusts in the National Institute of Health Research (NIHR) top 100 performing trusts across the UK for recruitment to research studies. We were among the first eight trusts nationally to be selected for the COVID-19 convalescence plasma trial and were in the first cohort nationally, amongst 25 hospitals, selected for the tocilizumab trial – only 50 sites in total out of 176 were selected.
