What We Offer:

  • Salary Range: £24,584 - £25,439 (dependent on experience)
  • Corporate Healthcare cover via Medicash
  • Group Personal Pension Scheme
  • Life Assurance Scheme

  • A comprehensive induction programme with ongoing training and development
  • Regular supervisions and annual appraisal scheme
  • Career Progression opportunities
  • Enhanced DBS check, fully paid for by Nugent and maintained on the DBS update service

Join Our Team:
