We are looking for a full-time senior phlebotomist for a 37.5 hours per week contract. This is an excellent opportunity for an enthusiastic and motivated person with good communication skills to work in a stimulating and challenging environment and to contribute to healthcare. We are a busy patient-focused department staffed by a friendly and helpful team working at both Epsom and St Helier Hospitals and attending clinic sessions in the community and GP surgeries as well as visiting patients' homes. We are looking for a responsible, adaptable person to join us in taking blood samples from patients requiring laboratory blood tests. Experience in adult, paediatric phlebotomy, and domiciliary phlebotomy are essential. You will be required to take part in the present Saturday and Bank Holiday rota. However, extended days or differing shifts may be required depending on the future needs of the service, and flexibility with regard to hours and place of work is essential. This is a cross-site role, and the post holder will be required to work at any of the Trust sites; however, the post-holder will be mainly based at Epsom.
A full driving license and the use of a car is essential as there is a need to travel between clinics. About us
