Sterile Services Technicians / Decontamination Technicians — temporary assignments, UK-wide
We're recruiting experienced decontamination staff for temporary assignments with NHS Trusts and independent healthcare providers across the UK.
The work:
- Reprocessing surgical instrument sets and flexible endoscopes
- Wash room, production room, autoclaves
- Endoscope leak testing and EWD operation
- Set assembly to count sheets
- Daily test regimes and load release
- HTM 01-01 and HTM 01-06 throughout
OUR ENTRY STANDARD — PLEASE READ BEFORE APPLYING
Decontamination is a patient safety function, so we recruit to a deliberately high bar and we apply it without exception. To be considered you must have:
- Completed structured, supervised, competency-based decontamination training delivered in-house by a UK healthcare employer, signed off by a departmental manager, supervisor or Decontamination Lead
- A minimum of 12 months' continuous substantive service in a single UK decontamination department during and after that training (permanent, fixed-term and directly employed bank service all count)
- Verifiable references covering the last 3 years, including one from the manager of the department where your training was signed off
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.
References are verified through official organisational channels only, corporate HR or verified departmental contacts. Personal email addresses and mobile numbers are not accepted. Certificates from third-party training providers are not accepted on their own without employer competency sign-off.
WHAT WE OFFER
Your choice of direct PAYE or an accredited umbrella from our audited PSL. Full pay transparency through a Key Information Document before you agree terms. Statutory holiday and pension. AWR equal treatment after 12 weeks. NHS and independent assignments nationwide. A consultant who actually knows the sector as our Director was an NHS Technician so we offer a knowledge-based service, and a compliance team that keeps your file current so you're never stood down at the door.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
£15.00–£24.00 per hour PAYE depending on grade, specialty and location. Enhancements for nights, weekends and Bank Holidays.
