Uro-oncology CNS Band 6

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join the UHD Urology CNS team.

We have the opportunity for a permanent post working across both sites of Bournemouth and Poole hospital. The successful applicant will work alongside the current Urology Cancer CNS Team in Poole.

The Band 6 Urology Cancer CNS plays a key role in delivering high-quality, evidence-based, holistic care to patients with suspected or confirmed cancer throughout their pathway — from diagnosis through treatment to survivorship or palliative care.

The postholder will work as part of the multidisciplinary team (MDT), providing expert nursing support, specialist education, and coordination of care. This includes supporting patients and families emotionally, practically, and clinically, while ensuring timely access to investigations, treatments, and follow-up care.

This role requires NMC Registration.
