An exciting opportunity has arisen for a motivated, enthusiastic, and experienced individual to join our Acute Pain Services team. You will primarily be based at Queen's Hospital, Romford but will be required to cover cross site at King George Hospital, Ilford.
The post holder will work autonomously and with the wider multi-disciplinary team to help deliver an expert inpatient specialist service for those patients needing acute pain assessment and interventions. As a nursing expert the post holder will demonstrate a high level of expertise within the pain management service, providing advice, education and support to staff, patients their families and carers.

The Pain Care Service (PCS) operates in line with the national objectives for pain management and to the divisional and corporate objectives and within the quality and safety framework. The team provide clinical expertise across departments and divisional boundaries. The post holder will support and work as part of the team to assist the Lead Specialist Practitioner Nurse (SPN) to install evidence-based standards. This clinical role is focused upon installing a high quality of clinical care and as such involves formal and informal education of self and others.
We’re an organisation that is getting better and better. We were the most improved Trust in England for A&E performance in 2023/24; we’re no longer in special measures; and Matthew Trainer, our Chief Executive, has been named the top CEO by the Health Service Journal. Our improvements are driven by a determination to deliver care we’re proud of and that our patients are happy with.
Many of our 8,000 staff – who come from 146 different countries - live in the three diverse London boroughs we serve and the majority are from black, Asian and minority ethnic groups. More than 400 of them are on apprenticeship programmes and we’re proud to be a London Living Wage employer.
We operate from two main sites - King George Hospital (KGH) in Goodmayes and Queen’s Hospital in Romford. We have two of the busiest emergency departments in London – more than 300,000 people visited our A&Es in 2023.
Patients across north east London are benefitting from two new state of the art theatres at KGH and our Community Diagnostic Centres at Barking Community Hospital and St George’s Health and Wellbeing Hub will significantly increase the number of scans that can be carried out.
We’re looking forward to introducing an electronic patient record next year. This will mean the records of any patient visiting one of the seven hospitals run by BHRUT and Barts Health will be accessible to the clinical teams. It’ll make things easier for staff and will be better for patients.
