  • Uphold patient privacy and dignity, ensure compliance with safety checklists, and contribute to improving clinical standards through audits and best practices.
  • Manage theatre resources effectively, participate in revenue capture, and assist in the planning and implementation of departmental improvements.



Role-Specific Duties:


  • Maintain a visible presence in Theatres to address immediate concerns and oversee operations.
  • Identify and resolve staffing and skill mix discrepancies, collaborate on cost improvement initiatives, and ensure efficient scheduling of theatre cases.
  • Communicate changes and delays effectively to relevant departments, ensure compliance with safety protocols, and manage the safe handling of drugs and equipment.
  • Participate in staff recruitment, induction, and orientation, and address patient and visitor enquiries and complaints promptly.



What We’re Looking For


  • Relevant clinical qualification and professional registration (e.g. NMC/HCPC).
  • Proven experience in a theatre coordination or similar role, with a strong understanding of clinical and operational management in a perioperative environment.
  • Exceptional leadership, communication, and organisational skills.
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities and work effectively under pressure.
  • Commitment to high standards of patient care, ability to work collaboratively, and a proactive approach to problem-solving and continuous improvement.
  • Completion of a leadership course and Surgical First Assistant certification is desirable.
