Sister/Charge Nurse - Haematology & Oncology
Location: Private Care at Guy's, London Bridge
Hours: Full-time, 37.5 hours per week
Salary: Competitive, with excellent benefits included
We are looking for an exceptional Sister/Charge Nurse with a strong background in haematology or oncology to join our renowned Cancer Nursing Team at Private Care at Guy's.
Here, specialist nursing meets world-leading innovation. As one of the UK's most advanced private cancer centres, Private Care at Guy's brings together state-of-the-art facilities, internationally recognised consultants and a nursing team known for clinical excellence and compassion. Our centre includes dedicated chemotherapy and radiotherapy services, modern theatres, oncology and surgical wards, and a four-bed intensive care unit supporting complex patient pathways.
What truly sets us apart is our commitment to pioneering treatment. Our cancer centre is at the forefront of clinical innovation, offering bispecific cancer therapies, and Tumour-Infiltrating Lymphocyte (TIL) therapy, one of the most personalised and sophisticated immunotherapies available today. We also deliver robotic-assisted cancer surgery and operate a JACIE-accredited stem cell transplant unit, providing advanced treatments for blood cancers. This is a rare opportunity to lead within a service delivering some of the most advanced cancer care in the private sector.
As a Sister/Charge Nurse, you will take on a pivotal leadership role within the unit, acting as a visible and supportive clinical lead throughout every shift. You will ensure safe and effective staffing through proactive workforce planning, while serving as a trusted source of advice and guidance for the wider multidisciplinary team. You will oversee patient flow, support complex discharges and respond confidently to rapidly changing clinical and operational needs.
Your influence will extend beyond the day-to-day. You will play an active role in service development, championing quality improvement initiatives and participating in audit activity to enhance both patient experience and staff wellbeing. You will also oversee incident management, ensuring thorough investigations and the sharing of meaningful learning across the team. Leadership of people is central to this role.
You will support and guide your nursing team through performance reviews, professional development planning and the setting of clear, achievable objectives. Through your leadership, you will help cultivate a positive, high-performing environment where excellent clinical practice and continuous improvement are embedded in everything we do.
At HCA UK we care about what you care about. We care that you want to deliver the very best care. We care that you want a career you can be proud of. We care that you want working conditions that support your health and wellbeing. Let us care for you and your career, the same way you do for others.
