Job overview

Main duties of the job

We are seeking a motivated and compassionate Band 6 Clinical Nurse Specialist to join our specialist neuromodulation service at University Hospital Southampton.

This is a specialist service providing pain management for patients undergoing implantation of spinal cord and occipital nerve stimulators. 

This role offers the opportunity to provide expert, evidence-based care and advice for patients with complex and persistent pain while supporting safe practice, education, governance and service improvement across inpatient and outpatient pathways. 

This is an excellent opportunity to develop highly specialised skills within a nationally recognised service, working both autonomously and collaboratively within a multidisciplinary team caring for patients with persistent pain.

Working for our organisation

University Hospital Southampton is one of England's largest acute teaching Trusts, offering a wide range of learning and development opportunities to support your career aspirations.

Located on the south coast with an international airport and direct rail links to London, Southampton offers an ideal setting to live and work, with the New Forest, South Downs and Jurassic Coast. 

We believe that using technology wisely shows strong time management and commitment to innovation. However, personalising your recruitment application to highlight your unique skills and experiences is crucial. Relying too heavily on generic, AI-generated content instead of drawing from your own strengths and accomplishments may lead to your application being rejected if multiple candidates present identical or similar information.

At UHS, we’re committed to providing a flexible working environment where possible. Whether you are balancing family, study, or your wellbeing with your career, we want to support you so you can help our patients. 

At UHS, we proudly champion individuality, recognising that outstanding care is only possible with a diverse, inclusive team. We’re committed to creating an anti-racist, anti-discriminatory environment where everyone feels valued, safe, and empowered to make a meaningful impact in our communities. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds, identities, and experiences to join us in building a healthcare community where everyone can belong, thrive, and contribute.
