Pay
Our staff are employed under the NHS Terms and Conditions of Service. This is a performance based pay scheme where your performance is assessed annually at appraisal. This provides an opportunity to progress within your pay band, and at key points in your career with us, progress your salary to the next pay step point.
- Staff are eligible for enhanced pay when they work unsocial hours.
- 27 days of holiday entitlement per year, plus eight public holidays, rising with service to 33 days after 10 years’ service.
- Subject to eligibility, every new employee is now automatically enrolled onto the NHS Pensions scheme.
Your development
Developing our staff is extremely important to us. From the beginning, we will support your training and development, starting with an induction into the organisation, followed by specialist training relevant to your role and interests.
We have developed our WeNurture scheme to help our staff work to their fullest potential. We support our leaders with a full range of management development courses to help them meet the demands of managing services in the modern NHS.
We also offer various other courses through both traditional face to face training and our bespoke eLearning packages delivered through our uLearn system.
Flexible working
We offer a range of flexible working options to help our staff with their work life balance. These include part time hours, job shares, annualised hours, term time-only contracts, flexible bank-only contracts, as well as standard all year round full-time contracts. We also increasingly practice agile working which means that many of our teams operate away from traditional bases.
