Job Overview

Join Our Outstanding Outpatient Leadership Team!

Are you an energetic, forward-thinking Registered Nurse looking to take the next step in your career? We have an exciting opportunity for a motivated nurse with broad clinical experience to join our senior Outpatient team at Frimley South.

Our Outpatient service is dedicated to delivering exceptional, patient-centred care — and we’re passionate about continually evolving to meet the needs of our community. As part of our leadership team, you will play a key role in shaping the future of our service, supporting colleagues, and ensuring an excellent experience for every patient who walks through our doors.

We’re looking for someone who brings strong organisational and leadership skills, along with a warm, collaborative approach. Exceptional communication and interpersonal skills are essential, as you’ll be supporting staff, coordinating activity across multiple sites, and combining hands‑on clinical work with a variety of administrative and supervisory responsibilities.

The role spans all Frimley South Outpatient locations, including Aldershot Centre for Health, Fleet Community Hospital, and Frimley Park Hospital. Our sites operate between 08:00 and 18:30, Monday to Saturday, giving you a varied and engaging working week.
