We’re Blind Veterans UK, a charity that helps vision-impaired ex-service people from every generation rebuild their lives regardless of how or when they lost their sight. Founded in 1915, by Sir Arthur Pearson, to help the many veterans losing their sight after the First World War, we have supported those blinded in subsequent wars and military engagements, including the Second World War, and more recently, the conflicts in the Falklands, Iraq and Afghanistan.

We are currently seeking a Registered Nurse to join our Health & Wellbeing Team on a permanent, full-time basis. Our Nurses work 37.5 hours per week across a series of day and night shifts and receive enhanced pay for unsociable hours worked.

The Benefits

– Salary of £38,147.80 per annum
– Generous annual leave with the option to buy additional days
– Pension scheme with generous employer contributions
– Healthcare cash plan
– Access to legal services and mental health support
– Employee assistance programme
– Paid professional subscriptions and discounts
– Home working allowance
– Professional and personal development
– Enhanced pay

If you’re a Registered Nurse with a clinical background and experience of mentoring, teaching and supporting staff, this is an exceptional opportunity to step into a rewarding role with our dedicated charity.

Not only will you be part of a meaningful legacy that spans generations, but you’ll be supported to grow in your role with paid professional subscriptions, a comprehensive wellbeing package and a commitment to your continual training and development

So, if you want to join a community where your skills make an impact and every day brings an opportunity to shape lives positively, read on and apply today
