Walsall, United Kingdom Walsall Council Full time

An exciting opportunity has arisen to work with the Health Protection team in Public Health at Walsall Council.

We are looking to recruit substantively to a senior (developmental) role to develop and lead the health protection service and to assist in the development of our team of Infection Prevention & Control nurses.

We are seeking a highly motivated and proactive qualified nurse who has the experience and knowledge to further develop the service within NHS, private and independent health and social care providers.
