Wigan, United Kingdom Northern Care Alliance NHS Foundation Trust Full time

The Haematology and Blood Transfusion Department is seeking to recruit an enthusiastic and highly motivated individual to join their team as a Biomedical Support Worker.

You will have keyboard skills, an awareness of computers and an interest in the field of pathology or science/biology together with a good general education. Previous laboratory experience would be desirable but not essential. You will have a commitment to undertake further training.

The post will be primarily based at The Royal Albert Edward Infirmary; however the post holder will be required to work at Wrightington Hospital and any of the Trust sites as required.

Unfortunately, this role does not meet the criteria required to qualify for sponsorship.

You will be performing general laboratory and clerical duties including entering data onto the laboratory computer system, preparation of blood samples for analysis, together with other simple routine manual and automated tests and general housekeeping duties. In line with the department’s requirements to ensure the Trust complies with national requirements for transfusion safety and quality, the successful individual will also be designated for blood stock management and traceability duties. In-house training will be given.

The Northern Care Alliance NHS Foundation Trust (NCA) provides hospital and integrated health and social care services to over one million people living across Greater Manchester. Our 20,000 colleagues care for people in hospital and in the community, working across Bury, Rochdale, Oldham and Salford, to save and improve lives.

As a large NHS trust we are committed to enhancing the health of our local population by delivering consistently high standards of care and working closely with local authorities and key partners. We believe in our power and potential to make a difference and we’re always looking for people who demonstrate our three core values - care, appreciate and inspire - to join our team.

In return, we can offer you a job role with purpose and flexibility. The size and scale of the NCA means we can provide more challenge and opportunities so your career can always be moving in the right direction. By joining us you can also access a competitive benefits package, including, a fantastic annual leave allowance, flexible working opportunities and protected hours for health and wellbeing activities, helping you to achieve more personal downtime and a better work-life balance.
