About Us: Stretching across Northern, Eastern, and Mid Devon, we have a workforce of over 10,000 staff, making us the largest employer in Devon. Our core services, which we provide to more than 500,000 people, cover more than 2,000 square miles across Devon, while some of our specialist services cover the whole of the peninsula, extending our reach as far as Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly.
We deliver a wide range of emergency, specialist, and general medical services through North Devon District Hospital and the Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital (Wonford). Alongside our two acute hospitals, we provide integrated health and social care services across various settings, including community inpatient hospitals, outpatient clinics, and within people’s own homes. We also offer primary care services, a range of specialist community services, and Sexual Assault Referral Centres (SARC).
Our state-of-the-art equipment, leading technologies, and strong links to local universities put us at the forefront of research and innovations, enabling us to provide world-class care to our local communities.
It has never been a more exciting time to join the Royal Devon, as you will help to shape our services as we continue along our integration journey.
Looking after you is important to us. We strive to help our staff create a healthy work-life balance through flexible working schemes and our family-friendly policies.

You will benefit from access to our own comprehensive occupational health services, including counselling, onsite wellbeing activities, and groups.
