Vacancy Introduction
An exciting opportunity has arisen for some senior healthcare support workers to join our Children’s Community Nursing Service. We have positions within our Inclusion Nursing team who provide vital nursing support for students who have complex health, additional needs or Learning disabilities, who attend the Specialist Inclusive Learning Centres (SILCs). You will be required to work across a number of different school sites within Leeds so the ability to travel between bases is essential.
We work Monday to Friday with various hours from 08.00 – 16.00 and the roles are term time only so an ideal opportunity for people who are unable to work in the school holidays. We support applications for flexible working when we can.
Whilst this is a clinical role, we do not expect candidates to have previous clinical experience, but some experience working with children is beneficial. You will receive a full package of training and will be well supported by an experienced team of nurses.
Interested candidates should love working with children, can engage and communicate well with parents and enjoy being part of a team who will work alongside health and education staff.
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 will be responsible for providing clinical care within the SILCs in Leeds. The work is interesting, varied, and includes delivering tube feeds to children, administering medication, as well as enabling children to attend school and complete school activities.
We operate a cross service model of working so you will have the opportunity to spend time and work with our other clinical teams – Hannah House, Continuing Care and Children’s Community Nursing which on occasions you may be asked to support.
