The role

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced nurse to lead our Nursing and Health Information team. This is key strategic role in leading the clinical work across the whole of Breast Cancer Now and being our clinical voice representing our views in a wide range of situations, wherever our expert voice needs to be heard.

We are looking for someone who can provide leadership to the Nursing Team, but who can also develop the clinical aspects of our services and our health information. As part of this you will enable our clinical activities to play their part across the whole of Breast Cancer Now and to be one of the main drivers of our work to reach health care professionals across a range of disciplines, not just nursing.  

You must be prepared to travel throughout the UK and to occasionally work varying hours. There will be a combination of home and office-based working from our central London office.

About you

You will be an experienced nurse having worked at a senior level with significant breast cancer nursing knowledge and an expert communicator with the ability to covey complex information to a variety of audiences. A strategic thinker, you will have a track record in leading teams of nurses to deliver high-quality information and support services.
