We are pleased to offer an exciting opportunity to join the paediatric nursing team here at Cambridge University Hospital (CUH) as a Paediatric Oncology and Haematology Clinical Nurse Specialist (CNS).

Your role will act as a key worker, ensuring smooth co-ordination of the child’s cancer journey throughout the whole treatment trajectory and beyond.
