Career possibilities and development opportunities
We are committed to get the very best out of our staff and support staff in their career aspirations. We have career pathways available, where you will be able to develop your skills and build on your experience to progress into other roles across different specialties.

This gives colleagues exposure to management and the chance to acquire some additional skills which can lead to management positions.
In addition to a complete induction, we offer ongoing training and development on the technical and soft skills and knowledge you will need to do the role. The NMC also provides opportunities for you to receive mentoring, shadow colleagues in other departments and apply for secondments and other job opportunities across the organisation
