We are delighted to offer an exciting opportunity for a Paediatric and Adolescent Gynaecology Clinical Nurse Specialist to join our dedicated team. This is a unique and rewarding role where you will have the chance to make a real and lasting difference to the lives of children and young people within a growing and highly specialised service.

As a key member of the team, you will combine clinical expertise with compassionate care, supporting patients and families through sensitive and often complex health journeys. You will play a central role in delivering personalised, high-quality care, helping young people to better understand and manage their health in a supportive and empowering environment.

This role offers the opportunity to work closely with a multidisciplinary team while also developing your own autonomous practice. You will contribute to shaping and advancing the service, bringing innovation, enthusiasm, and a commitment to excellence in patient care.

If you are passionate about improving outcomes for young people, thrive in a supportive and forward‑thinking environment, and are looking for a role where you can truly make an impact, we would love to hear from you.

You will manage a defined caseload, ensuring effective coordination of care across multidisciplinary teams and services. This includes supporting timely access to treatment, monitoring progress and maintaining clear communication with patients, families, and colleagues.

You will independently lead nurse‑led clinics, including dilator and menstrual management services, undertaking comprehensive assessment, planning, implementation and evaluation of care. You will provide tailored education and guidance, enabling young people to understand their condition and actively participate in their care.

The role involves delivering sensitive information in an age‑appropriate and accessible manner, while providing emotional support and reassurance. You will act as an advocate, ensuring that care is personalised and responsive to individual needs, including safeguarding considerations where appropriate.

In addition, you will contribute to service improvement initiatives, support clinical governance requirements and maintain accurate documentation.

Strong organisational skills, clinical judgement and the ability to prioritise effectively are essential to succeed in this role.
