About The Team And We Do
Hearing Coordinator are a part of the Adjudication team. The Adjudication team within the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) plays a crucial, independent role in the final stages of the fitness to practise process, responsible for organising, managing, and delivering hearings where decisions are made about a nurse, midwife, or nursing associate's right to practise.
This team ensures that hearings are run efficiently, fairly, and in compliance with statutory frameworks, with the ultimate goal of protecting the public and maintaining confidence in the profession.
Your Role and Impact
Hearings Coordinators play a pivotal role in protecting the public and supporting trust in healthcare. In this role, you’ll guide the smooth running of our Fitness to Practise hearings — ensuring that proceedings are fair, well-managed, and respectful for everyone taking part.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You’ll coordinate multiple participants (including Chairs, panel members, legal advocates, registrants, and witnesses), maintain the flow of the hearing, and draft the formal written outcome based on decisions made. The work is practical, public-facing and high-stakes; it demands clarity, composure, and strong communication.
This role sits at the heart of our values: Integrity, Fairness, Respect, Equity and Effectiveness. These values guide how hearings are run, how decisions are communicated, and how we support those who appear before us.

What Will You Bring To The Role
Previous experience in hearings, tribunals, regulation, governance or legal environments can be helpful, but it is not essential. If you can demonstrate the right behaviours which includes: communicating with impact, collaborating and including, achieving results and improving and adapting. Along with the other technical skills and experience listed in the person specification.
This is a dynamic public-facing role. Occasionally, hearings run beyond standard working hours to conclude safely and efficiently — we plan ahead as much as possible and support colleagues to maintain healthy balance.
