London, The Lister Hospital
Contract Type: Bank
We’re looking for a Bank Surgical Care Practitioner to join our Theatres team at The Lister Hospital, London, currently rated “Outstanding” by the CQC.
The Lister Hospital has been delivering exceptional care in the heart of Chelsea for over 30 years. With its location overlooking the River Thames and close links to major teaching hospitals, you’ll work alongside some of the UK’s most respected consultants in a facility known for consistently high standards of patient care. The hospital is home to one of the UK’s largest private fertility services and offers access to a wide range of complex and specialist treatments.
As a Surgical Care Practitioner in our Theatres Department, you’ll join a highly skilled multidisciplinary team delivering care across a broad surgical caseload. Our department includes four modern theatres supporting specialties such as Orthopaedics, Urology, Gynaecology, General and Colorectal surgery, ENT, Head and Neck, Thoracic and Spinal surgery, and IVF. In this role, you’ll work closely with experienced consultants and theatre colleagues in a collaborative environment that prioritises safety, continuous improvement, and shared learning. You’ll take an active role across the full surgical pathway, from assessment through to recovery, with the opportunity to use advanced clinical skills and contribute directly to high-quality patient outcomes. Surgical Care Practitioners are integral members of the surgical team, supporting procedures and delivering care before, during, and after surgery under the supervision of a senior surgeon.
