We are looking for an experienced Registered Nurse to join our Oncology Unit at The Christie Private Care—an outstanding, specialist cancer centre developed in partnership with The Christie NHS Foundation Trust.
This is a fantastic opportunity for a nurse with a background in acute medicine who is looking to transition into Oncology and develop their career within a world-renowned cancer care environment. We are particularly keen to hear from nurses who have experience managing complex patients, delivering intravenous therapies, and thriving in fast-paced clinical settings.
At The Christie Private Care, you will be part of a dedicated oncology service offering a complete cancer care pathway—including diagnostics, inpatient, surgical, day case and outpatient treatment—all under one roof.

As a Staff Nurse, you will be responsible for supporting the experienced nursing team to assess, plan, deliver and evaluate high standards of specialist care to ensure that patients are cared for in a safe, caring and comfortable environment. This will include meeting their medical, physical and emotional needs by effectively communicating with the patient and their families.
Here at HCA Healthcare we continually invest in our colleagues, and this role is no different. We will support you to develop your knowledge and skills in oncology specialist nursing, which includes being trained to administer the Systemic Anti-Cancer Treatments (SACT), stem cell administration and various new anti-cancer treatments. It’s a great opportunity for a Staff Nurse looking to take the next step in their career and develop in depth specialist knowledge.
