South Western Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust
Join us and you'll find an Ambulance Service that understands the better we look after you, the better equipped you'll be to look after our patients. We listen and work with our staff to ensure a progressive, clinically advanced service which takes account of feedback, organisational learning and provides staff with the equipment and support necessary to help them fulfil their demanding roles.
Our commitment to supporting our staff is by our dedicated clinical career framework, which supports the career development of paramedics into specialist and/or managerial roles with many of our current staff in these roles having developed internally.
Please clearly state in your supporting information section the categories currently listed on your driving licence and whether you are currently blue light driving trained.
We are currently recruiting overseas for this position for candidates that hold the necessary UK driving requirements and HCPC registration.
We also welcome applications from 2024 graduate paramedics. We are able to offer an enhanced supportive preceptorship programme to help develop your confidence as an autonomous professional, and support your continuous learning.
Main duties of the job
Our diverse geography which includes some very remote rural communities has driven our ambition to equip all our staff with the training, support and skills they need to deliver a higher level of care, enabling more of our patients to be treated closer to home and resulting in the lowest conveyance rate across the Ambulance Sector.
