Are you passionate about making a life-changing difference to patients with kidney disease? We are looking for an enthusiastic, compassionate, and highly organised Band 6 Renal Transplant Co-ordinator to join our friendly and innovative Renal Team at the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (NNUH).
This is a unique opportunity to play a pivotal role in supporting patients throughout their entire transplant journey – from assessment and preparation for transplantation, through to long-term post-transplant follow-up. Working across Norfolk and Waveney, including close collaboration with colleagues at the James Paget University Hospital and Addenbrooke's Transplant Centre, you will coordinate complex pathways, provide specialist advice and psychological support, and act as a key advocate for patients and their families.
As a Renal Transplant Co-ordinator, you will be an autonomous practitioner and expert resource, developing strong relationships with patients, multidisciplinary teams, and external partners. You will have the opportunity to further develop and expand our Living Donor Programme, helping to improve access to transplantation and supporting patients to achieve the best possible outcomes.
Your Duties Will Include
- Managing a specialist caseload across the transplant pathway, coordinating assessments, investigations, follow-up care, and education, while working closely with multidisciplinary teams, primary care, and regional transplant centres.
- Providing highly specialist clinical advice, leading nurse-led transplant and donor clinics, supporting service development, contributing to audit and research activity, and playing a key role in maintaining high standards of patient-centred care.
- Acting as an expert resource for patients and healthcare professionals, promoting evidence-based practice, and improving patient outcomes.
