Name Katherine Omand- Barker Position Senior Sister Email [email protected] Phone number 0113 2060963 Shortlisting Date: 21/09/226 Interview Date: 01/10/2026

Give a short summary of the role and why this person should work for you. Potential applicants will read this first, so inform, engage and excite. An exciting opportunity has arisen for a seconded Band 6 Junior Sister/Charge Nurse to come and join our team on the Surgical Assessment Unit (SAU) at St James’s University Hospital within the Abdominal Medicine and Surgery CSU. We currently have a very dynamic, passionate team who are striving to provide high quality care to acute patients requiring urgent surgical/gastroenterology and urology assessments/interventions. This would be an ideal opportunity for a Band 5 Registered Nurse looking to gain some additional leadership and management experience.

SAU is a fast-paced acute assessment area caring for acute admissions within the General Surgical, Urology, Colorectal and Gastroenterology specialties. We assess patients who are referred by Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust Emergency Departments (ED) and via Primary Care Access Line (PCAL) in which patients are referred by Leeds GP surgeries. In addition to SAU, you will also work on the Ambulatory Surgical Centre (ASC) where patients are seen directly by a consultant following a referral from the GP or ED.

SAU and ASC are both dynamic, high-pressure environments and are constantly striving for excellency and a high standard of patient care. If you are an individual who is keen to progress and develop through contributing new ideas for service improvement and helping to lead a hard-working team, then this is an ideal role for you.

You will have excellent communication and leadership skills, and the ability to demonstrate recent change management and implementation. You will be supporting the Band 7 Senior Sister to lead the team working on SAU and help to promote a positive, safe working environment that provides the best care possible for the patients. You will help to lead on aspects of patient safety, supporting staff and lots of improvement work that is currently underway on SAU. Previous experience at Band 6 would be an advantage, but it is also an opportunity for a Band 5 to further develop their career and leadership skills. You must demonstrate effective organisational skills and an ability to remain calm under pressure, with a positive attitude, acting as a positive role model.

Effective service delivery requires staff to be flexible and be able to work full rotating shift patterns. Candidates should have current NMC registration and extensive experience at Band 5. Management experience is desirable but not essential. If you feel that you have the correct skills and attitude for this post, please complete an application or contact the Band 7 Senior Sister for more details.

Please see the attached job description for further information about this vacancy.

The Leeds Way is working together to support each other and deliver the best possible care to patients.
