Job responsibilities
Decontamination Driver-Bank
Cobalt Hospital
The role
The safety of our patients and our people is paramount to us at Ramsay Health Care UK. That's why our work in the Decontamination Unit is so vital. It's here that we sterilise all the instruments and equipment needed to deliver a wide variety of surgical procedures and treatments across the hospital. Join us, and you'll help bring peace of mind to our patients, their families, and our hard-working teams, as you deliver for your customers across a complex and changing caseload that's full of variety.
We are seeking a competent individual who is looking for flexible working and open to available shifts dependent on the need at Cobalt Hospital.
Please be aware on a Bank contract we are unable to confirm contracted shift patterns therefore this is a great opportunity for current Bank workers or someone looking for additional hours in their current role.

You will require a full driving license for this role.

Registered with the Care Quality Commission patients can be assured of the highest standards in surgical, nursing, hygiene and aftercare services at Cobalt. The endoscopy service has recently achieved Joint Advisory Group accreditation an industry standard for the delivery of endoscopy procedures so patients can be assured they will receive the highest quality of clinical care and patient experience.

If you're eager to learn, we can support you through our Ramsay Academy to gain the skills and qualifications you need to join - and then develop - in the department.

What is a Bank Contract:
A Bank contract at Ramsay Health Care UK is a flexible employment agreement where you are not committed to a set number of hours per week. Instead, you work on an ad-hoc basis, filling in shifts that we have available in our hospitals. A Bank contract is ideal for individuals seeking flexibility, as it allows you to choose shifts that fit your availability, leaving you with a greater work-life balance. Bank contracts are also a fantastic way to secure additional income alongside other contracted work. Our Bank staff play a crucial role in maintaining service levels during peak times or staff shortages, ensuring that patient care remains uninterrupted.
