RCN HQ London with Hybrid working
Salary range: £66,909 to £75,492 per annum pro rata*
Imagine being faced with a world of exciting possibilities that could ultimately enable you to support our members and help shape the health policies of the future. As the UK’s largest trade union and professional body for nursing, we support over half a million members with unwavering loyalty and total commitment. We represent and develop them, support their practice and lobby on their behalf to make a positive difference to their working lives.
We're accredited with Investors in People Silver Standard. Our people are our greatest asset, and we want people who can contribute to our purpose in line with our values.
This is an exciting opportunity to influence children and young people’s (CYP) nursing practice and harness the voice of nursing by developing and utilising effective professional relationships between the RCN and relevant national-level external networks and stakeholders such as statutory agencies, professional bodies, providers and commissioners, independent and third sector organisations and public / patient groups.
Your role will be central to the development of the RCN as the voice of Nursing by working alongside colleagues in policy and practice and drive the success of the RCN as a business. You will be required to liaise and communicate with RCN members on all matters relating to CYP Nursing and to be proactive in effective lobbying to ensure the voice of our members and those with lived experience is heard.
Nursing Practice is a high priority of the RCN and as part of our Practice Academy you’ll lead some national projects so your ability to influence stakeholders and build key external relationships is vital. Through your work and the relationships, you build you will gain a strategic understanding of nursing at a national/UK level within your area.
Alongside involvement in internal and external national networks, you will have the opportunity to work closely with the RCN CYP professional forums and other members to provide professional steer, shape clinical guidance and develop resources to influence a wide spectrum of nursing care for a range of people and populations.
Whilst this role will be focused on a Children and Young People’s portfolio of nursing there will be a need to deliver pieces of work that span the breadth of nursing and midwifery. Collaboration with other specialist leads will be essential.
To join us you’ll need to be an experienced NMC registered nurse with senior clinical experience within children’s and young peoples nursing. You will have post graduate education at master’s level.
A teaching qualification alongside experience of working at a strategic or national level with multi-professional groups is also desirable.
To succeed at the Royal College of Nursing all you need to do is think bigger, better and brighter. And with an attitude like that, anything’s possible.
