The North West Ambulance Service (NWAS) is expanding its clinical workforce within our Integrated Contact Centres (ICC).

The post provides an opportunity for motivated and experienced Nurse\Paramedics with a telephone triage experience background to take the next step in their career.

We are looking to recruit to our Middlebrook (Bolton) site. Flexibility and being able to participate in a self-preferencing rota that provides 24-hour cover will be required.

Postholders will be responsible for maintaining high standards of care and safety within clinical delivery, actively supporting colleagues to ensure telephone triage is delivered to the highest standards and in a timely manner.
