  • Experience of supervising staff and/or students, including formal supervision and appraisal.
  • Able to demonstrate skills in the assessment and treatment of oncology patients.
  • Information Technology skills, including email, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.
  • Evidence of an up-to-date CPD portfolio.

We are committed to equality, diversity, and inclusion for all job applicants, staff, patients, and the wider community. We want to create a workforce that represents the communities we serve. We are on a journey to become a more inclusive organisation and welcome applications from everyone, regardless of their background.

We understand the importance of balancing work and home life. We are committed to supporting flexible working for our staff wherever possible and all our employees are given the opportunity to discuss potential for flexible working.
