We are looking for motivated individuals to join our Domestic team at Bracken House who will be responsible for cleaning all our patient and non-patient areas.
Previous experience of working within a Domestic or Cleaning environment is desirable but not essential as full training will be given.
We have in-house training to help your personal development plans and will support you with all of your training needs.
Successful applicants with no prior NHS experience would normally be placed at the bottom of the band in line with Agenda for Change. This salary is below the minimum salary required for sponsorship for a Skilled Worker / Health & Care visa. In these circumstances, the Trust would not, therefore, be able to sponsor for a Skilled Worker / Health & Care visa.
Applicants requiring a Skilled Worker Visa can determine the likelihood of obtaining a Certificate of Sponsorship against the relevant criteria here: https://www.gov.uk/skilled-worker-visa
