Job Summary

Are you a registered Nurse Associate, or a Student Nurse Associate coming to the end of your training with children's or neonatal experience or an interest in developing new skills, who is committed to providing the best care possible for preterm and sick newborn babies?

If the answer to the above questions is YES then the Neonatal Unit at the Great Western Hospital could be the place for you.

The Great Western Hospital are seeking a Nurse Associate to join the team on the Neonatal Unit.

Main duties of the job

As a band 4 Nurse Associate you will be working alongside an experienced team to provide care to a range of babies with a variety of conditions. Our Neonatal unit has 18 cots, which is comprised of 2 intensive cots, 4 high dependency cots and 12 special care cots.

We are a designated Local Neonatal Unit, (Level 2) providing care for preterm babies from 27 weeks' gestation and for sick newborn babies. We also have a Transitional Care unit soon to have 8 beds.

About Us

Our STAR values - Service, Teamwork, Ambition and Respect - are a golden thread running through everything we do. These values serve as a guiding principle, driving us towards our vision of delivering great joined up services to our local community. Whether at home, in the community, or within the hospital, our goal is to empower individuals to lead independent and healthier lives.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.
