Fixed Term/Secondment Opportunity
We are offering an exciting fixed term / secondment opportunity for a Band 2 Housekeeper to support the Intensive Care Unit as part of a test of change. This role is vital in maintaining a safe, organised and efficient clinical environment, ensuring stock levels, preparing admission and clinical packs, supporting relatives, and carrying out essential clerical and environmental duties to assist the nursing team.
The post helps relieve workload pressures on HCSWs and registered nurses by taking forward key non-clinical tasks, improving workflow and supporting high-quality patient care in our busy ICU setting. We are seeking a friendly, organised, and proactive individual with good communication skills who can work effectively as part of a multidisciplinary team.
Fixed Term/Secondment Opportunity
Existing permanent employees must first discuss this opportunity with their substantive line manager. The secondment policy can be found here. If you do not have approval for a secondment from your current line manager, you will not be able to progress your application for a fixed term post. External applicants, with continuous NHS Service, must also have in place a secondment agreement, from their existing board to apply for this post.

AI tools like ChatGPT or Copilot can be great for planning and preparing your application but your answers must be your own.
- Show us the real you: Your application should reflect your skills, experience, and motivations authentically.
- Use AI wisely: It’s fine to use AI for ideas or to check spelling and grammar, but don’t let it write your answers.
- Why this matters: Applications that rely on AI-generated content may be withdrawn. By applying, you confirm your responses are based on your own knowledge and achievements.
Tip: Think of AI as a helper, not a substitute. We want to understand you not an AI tool.
