Anaesthetic Practitioner Opportunity
An exciting opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic and motivated Anaesthetic Practitioner to join our Theatre Department at Kettering General Hospital. Working across a wide range of specialties including Orthopaedics, General Surgery, Urology, Breast, ENT and Maxillofacial Surgery, you will play a key role in delivering safe, effective and high-quality perioperative care.
You will work as part of a multidisciplinary theatre team, providing expert anaesthetic support and contributing to the smooth running of both elective and emergency services, including participation in the out-of-hours on-call rota. Applicants must be either an HCPC-registered Operating Department Practitioner (ODP) or an NMC-registered Nurse with a recognised post-registration anaesthetic qualification.
We are looking for a dedicated professional with a passion for patient care, strong perioperative knowledge and the ability to work effectively in a fast-paced environment. In return, we offer a supportive team, opportunities for professional development and the chance to make a real difference to the patient experience.
