Biomedical Scientist - Blood Transfusion

University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic, professional, reliable and highly motivated Biomedical Scientist to work as part of our team in the Blood Transfusion Department at University Hospitals of Leicester (UHL).

The successful candidate will be expected to work at any of the 3 UHL sites as appropriate for the delivery of the service, any time over a 24/7 period.

We are looking for good team players who can effectively contribute to the on-going development of the service within the Trust. Candidates should also show an ongoing commitment to continued professional development and training / education.

The post holder will be expected to assist the section manager in the daily operations and service provision of the Blood Transfusion Department.

You will be a well-motivated, responsible team member who is able to manage high workloads, perform to a high-quality standard and work as part of a team or on your own initiative with minimal supervision. You must be able to demonstrate good written and verbal communication skills and have a flexible approach in line with the Trust agenda of service reconfiguration and be capable of working accurately and efficiently under pressure.

Our new strategy, developed with the support and feedback of colleagues, patients, and partners, is our compass for the next seven years (2023-2030).

We Have Four Primary Goals

  • high-quality care for all,
  • being a great place to work,
  • partnerships for impact, and
  • research and education excellence

And we will embed health equality in all we do - taking active steps to reduce the avoidable differences in healthcare that some people face, working in partnership with communities.

Our strategy is underpinned by new values and we will work to ensure they are an everyday reality for all:

  • we are compassionate,
  • we are proud,
  • we are inclusive, and
  • we are one team

This is an exciting moment as we look to the future with clarity on what we already do well and where we need to focus our energies to make an even bigger difference for the people we serve.
