We have an exciting opportunity for a Band 6 Orthopaedic Team Leader to join the team at the North Tyneside General Hospital for a permanent post.
We are looking for an experienced practitioner/Nurse to lead and manage teams trust wide within the Orthopaedic team.
You must be dynamic, flexible, forward-thinking, and motivated to drive change and creative ways of working to cover trust wide service needs.
Please note we reserve the right to close this vacancy prior to the closing date once the required number of suitable applications have been received.
Please note: for Secondment roles before an application is submitted, please ensure you have received the appropriate approval from your current manager and have completed documentation required beforehand (see secondment policy), as this may delay the process if an offer was to be made.
Would you like to work for a Trust where you can be proud of the contribution you will make to delivering high quality healthcare with a personal touch? Come and join a Trust which recognises the contribution our Nursing, Midwifery, and Operating Department Practitioners make, and values the work they do.
This is reflected in our current 5-year strategy vision “to develop a valued and respected workforce who are given the skills to inspire and innovate across professions.”
We currently have a vacancy for a keen and enthusiastic person with extended experience in Orthopaedics to join our team at the North Tyneside General Hospital.

We manage three major locality hospitals at North Tyneside, Wansbeck, and Hexham, plus a number of smaller community hospitals and clinics from Tynemouth to Berwick on Tweed, in addition to our state-of-the-art Northumbria Specialist Emergency Care Hospital, the first of its kind in England. We also care for people in their homes and provide services from facilities in local communities such as health centres. We give people greater choice and control over their care to help them to live independently at home and avoid hospital admission where appropriate. High quality patient care is at the heart of everything we do, and we strive to ensure every single patient and service user has an exceptional experience with us. We have one of the most extensive patient experience programmes of any trust in England.
Key Responsibilities:
1. To assist in the provision of nursing care and maintain high clinical standards.
