This is an exciting opportunity for a registered nurse who is passionate about preventative healthcare and is looking to develop specialist occupational health expertise within a supportive and growing team. The role also offers the potential for a structured development pathway towards becoming an Occupational Health Advisor in the future.

As part of a collaborative Occupational Health function, you'll deliver health screening and surveillance programmes, support safe working practices, and help ensure employees receive a professional, high-quality occupational health service.

This is a fast-paced role in an ever-changing environment that will require regular travel across the South SGN Patch.

We deliver safety, warmth, and comfort to homes and businesses. Every role, whether in the office or on the front line, plays a key part in this mission. Here’s how you will contribute…

• Conducting quantitative face fit testing following training and competency sign-off
• Undertaking drug and alcohol testing in line with company procedures and governance requirements
• Maintaining accurate, confidential clinical records and supporting audit and quality assurance activities
• Coordinating appointments, recalls and follow-up actions to ensure a positive employee experience
• Providing wellbeing information and signposting employees to appropriate support services
• Working closely with Occupational Health Advisors, Occupational Health Physicians, Occupational Health Technicians and wider business stakeholders

What you will need

• NMC registration, plus occupational health, health surveillance or workplace wellbeing experience

• Strong clinical assessment skills and professional judgement
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to discuss sensitive health matters with confidence and empathy
• A thorough understanding of confidentiality, consent, professional governance and record keeping
• Experience managing competing priorities and working effectively within multidisciplinary teams
• A commitment to continuous learning and professional development
• Experience in areas such as audiometry, spirometry, vision screening, face fit testing, or drug and alcohol testing is desirable
