Job responsibilities

Bank Hospital Porter - North Downs Hospital - Bank Hours

The role:

We currently have a great opportunity for a Hospital Porter to join our team at North Downs Hospital. You will be apart of the hospital porter team. The job covers a wide variety of task from taking patients to and from theatres and other departments to general site duties such as handling post, handling medical gas cylinders and some occasional driving deliveries between sites. If you are a person who thrives on variety, has a positive can do approach and wants to be part of an outstanding hospital team then we'd love to hear from you.

Where you will be based:

North Downs Hospital is part of Ramsay Health Care UK, one of the leading independent healthcare providers in England. The hospital has an excellent reputation for delivering high quality healthcare for patients with health insurance, patients who are self-funding treatment or NHS patients exercising choice through the e-referral system. By investing in the latest advanced medical technology, we offer a wide range of treatments and services. We care for patients from initial outpatient consultation and diagnostic scanning through to surgical treatment and recovery.

What you'll bring with you:

A Bank contract at Ramsay Health Care UK is a flexible employment agreement where you are not committed to a set number of hours per week. Instead, you work on an ad-hoc basis, filling in shifts that we have available in our hospitals.

Bank contracts are also a fantastic way to secure additional income alongside other contracted work.
