So if you can put the patients needs at the centre of what you do, are a team player and have excellent communication skills then we want to hear from you today!

We offer a friendly and challenging work environment with a strong commitment to personal professional development.

We have three posts (0.25WTE each) one for each of our clinics at the North Wales District General Hospital sites (Ysbyty Gwynedd Bangor, Ysbyty Glan Clwyd Bodelwyddan, Ysbyty Maelor Wrexham). The successful applicants for each of these posts will be expected to liaise with each other and provide cross-cover where needed. Applicants should indicate which of these sites would be their preferred base location.
