Description
University Hospitals Dorset NHS Foundation Trust
Gynae-Oncology Nurse Specialist Band 6
The closing date is 25 November 2026
Job summary
An exciting opportunity has arisen to join the Gynae-Oncology Cancer Nurse Specialist Team at UHD. The successful applicant will work alongside the current Gynae-oncology CNS Team based at Bournemouth and work with the Gynae-oncology team in Poole to help the patient pathway across both our areas to work towards developing a UHD Gynae-Oncology Cancer CNS Service.
The post holder will work within the team to deliver high-quality, patient centred care to individuals with, or at risk of, gynaecological cancers.
We are looking for an enthusiastic nurse who is keen to make a difference in the care of those experiencing a life changing diagnosis. As there is a significant Gynae/Oncology component to the post, previous experience in these areas is desirable, but not essential. More important in this role is a nurse who is highly organised, motivated to learn, with excellent communication and team working skills.
This role will be 30 hours a week.
This role requires NMC Registration.
Base Location: Bournemouth Hospital
Interview date: 4th December

About us
Our values define who we are as #TeamUHD. They underpin everything we do now and in the future. They define how we treat our patients, visitors, and each other, our valued teammates and colleagues.
UHD are investing in services across the Trust, with many being transformed and developed following merger and the New Hospital Programme.
This means that some services may move site this year or next, either temporarily or long term. Recruiting Managers interviewing for this role will be happy to answer any specific questions that you have at interview.
If a role or service relocates as part of a planned move, excess mileage will not be reimbursed. Travel from home to the new work base will be classed as a normal commute. Any other changes will be managed under Trust or national terms and conditions.
