Travel
This is a field-based role covering healthcare facilities throughout the UK.
Travel is an important part of the position, and while many projects are completed within a normal working day, there will be occasions where overnight stays are required. Flexibility is important, and in return we aim to plan workloads efficiently and support a healthy work-life balance wherever possible.
