Ever thought about a Paramedic career in Scotland? If so, we may have a post for you…
Maybe it is time for a change? Or maybe you have always fancied working in some of the UK’s most stunning scenery? Well, the time is right to come and join us here in Scotland
The Scottish Ambulance Service is recruiting Paramedics to work on the beautiful island of Islay. As a Service we are developing at pace, in the last five years we have introduced Advanced Paramedics in Urgent and Emergency Care, developed a new clinical response model, rolled out Critical Care Paramedics, developed a new education programme and improved survival from Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrests (OHCA) to world leading levels. We are now embarking on our next 10-year strategy which will see the Service sustain these changes and further develop the clinical care we deliver.
It’s an exciting time to join the Service and have opportunities for Paramedics across Scotland.
What do we need from you?
You need to be an HCPC registered Paramedic who has a C1 on their driving licence. You’ll need your C1 licence as our fleet of A&E vehicles are all Mercedes with a box body conversion, the majority of which are under five years old. Ideally you would have your emergency driving qualification, however if you don’t currently have this, we can help you achieve it. You will be required to live on the island, preferably within 3 miles of Bowmore, so please ensure you are able to secure accommodation.
But more than that, we are looking for Paramedics who want to help us in the delivery of high-quality care to the people of Scotland. Our Paramedics are exceptional and have a real passion for what they do. The Scottish Ambulance Service consider it a privilege to care for the people of Scotland and if you feel the same way too, apply now.
Why work for the Scottish Ambulance Service?
We are proud to provide an emergency ambulance service to the population of Scotland. We have 6,800 staff working in 150 locations serving all mainland and island communities. Each year, we take around 1 million patients to and from hospital and transfer 90,000 patients between hospital. Our Air Ambulance undertakes around 3,500 missions a year and our SCOTSTAR service transfers 2,500 of Scotland’s most seriously ill patients.
How do you apply?
Please click on the ‘Apply for job’ button at the bottom of this page and follow the on-screen instructions. You will receive an automated response as soon as you have submitted your application. Due to pressures within the Service, there may be delays in us being able to progress with your application, we will be in touch with you as soon as we have concluded the shortlisting process.
If you believe you have the necessary skills, experience, and passion to succeed in this role, we look forward to receiving your application.
NHS Scotland is reducing their full-time working week from 37.5 to 37 hours per week from 1 April 2024 but with no change in pay. This advert and any subsequent offer/contract of employment therefore reflects the new working hours. However, as not all service areas will be able to adopt the 37 hour working week immediately from 1 April 2024, you may be required to work up to an additional 30 minutes per week for a temporary period, for which you would be paid, until the service you are working in changes rosters or working patterns to accommodate the new reduced working week. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Hiring Manager.
NHS Scotland is committed to encouraging equality and diversity among our workforce and eliminating unlawful discrimination. The aim is for our workforce to be truly representative and for each employee to feel respected and able to give their best. To this end, NHS Scotland welcomes applications from all sections of society.
