The event is being held on Saturday, February 6, from 10am-1pm, at the hospital’s Recreation Hall (now called The Hall@KGH) which is adjoining car park B close to the Trust’s headquarters building Glebe House.

Head of workforce information Andrew Stewart said: “There will be a strong emphasis on nursing, especially opportunities for student nurses.
“We are also looking to recruit to our staff bank (individuals who work shifts at short notice and want greater flexibility around their working hours) – especially healthcare assistants and administrative staff.
“In addition there will be information on positions across the hospitals from many different departments so there are exciting opportunities for anyone with an interest in working at the hospital - or people with existing healthcare skills looking for new opportunities – to attend our event and find out what is on offer.”

“At KGH we have 1,126 full time nursing positions but each year clearly we need to replace staff due to retirement, or career moves, and we are always looking to develop new and exciting roles designed to enhance patient care and staff experience.
“As a result recruitment to nursing posts is always ongoing and there are always great opportunities to develop your career here at KGH.”
Opportunities on offer will be described on the KGH website.
On the day there will be an opportunity to make applications and meet staff from the relevant departments to answer any questions people may have.
