With the ability to think on your feet and a flexible attitude, you’ll be a qualified paramedic with current HCPC registration and ALS/ATLS/PALS qualification for Paramedics. Capable of demonstrating initiative, you’ll have proven experience of post-registration experience in any of the following clinical areas: Accident & Emergency, Primary Care environments, Minor Injuries / Illness Units.

You’ll receive an hourly pay rate of £19.73. We offer a whole host of additional benefits such as: free DBS check, free uniform, an extensive training and induction structure for all employees along with an employee recognition scheme (for anyone you refer into a permanent role).
