**The role**
RCN Officer RCN Northern - Sunderland Office with hybrid working 17.5 hours per week, permanent Salary: £47,745 to £53,934* per annum pro rota Imagine being faced with a world of exciting possibilities that could ultimately enable you to support our members and help shape the health policies of the future. As the UK’s largest trade union and professional body for nursing, we support over half a million members with unwavering loyalty and total commitment. We represent and develop them, support their practice and lobby on their behalf to make a positive difference to their working lives. As a trusted adviser, mediator and advocate you’ll be just as passionate about supporting our members in the Northern Region. These are challenging roles that require determination and resilience; however they also offer genuine job satisfaction and opportunities to develop. We're accredited with Investors in People Silver Standard. Our people are our greatest asset, and we want people who can contribute to our purpose in line with our values.
**The person**
As an RCN officer you’ll use your positive attitude and your knowledge of health and care issues to deliver best practice in relation to employment practices, influencing and negotiating on behalf of our members. Every day will be filled with possibilities as you find new ways to manage and support the development of our members and our accredited representatives. You will manage your own portfolio of casework, which will include assisting and representing members with employment related issues and processes. Taking care of our members will be your primary role, but you’ll also see the possibilities that new members can bring. A key part of what you do will be to suggest innovative approaches to support and grow our membership. To join us you’ll need to be able to advise and represent our members on matters relating to employment, professional nursing practice and education. Ideally, you will have a background in a relevant area such as nursing, health and social care and experience in supporting individuals or groups with work related issues. However, we recognise that experience in other professional roles (such as human resources and legal services) can offer transferable skills and knowledge for this role. We offer a robust induction and development plan for successful individuals to enable transition into the role. You will need to have good communication skills, be able to challenge and negotiate skilfully and have the ability to work with a range of stakeholders across a variety of health and care settings. You will need to be able to travel within the geographical area of the Northern region to enable us to support and advocate for our members when required. Whatever your background, you'll be efficient, accurate and show a real customer focus in all you do. To succeed at the Royal College of Nursing all you need to do is think bigger, better and brighter. And with an attitude like that, anything’s possible.
