Custody Nurse or Paramedic

£41.5k per annum
Full-time
Job summary
If you're looking to take your nursing or paramedic career in a new direction, we offer a dynamic and innovative pathway with excellent opportunities for progression and comprehensive training. The role involves working not only in your base Custody Suite but also across your designated region within Police Custody Suites and the wider Force area. No previous forensic experience is required, as full training will be provided.

Main duties of the job
As a qualified nurse or paramedic, you can take your career in an exciting new direction by supporting some of society's most vulnerable individuals within the criminal justice system. We believe everyone deserves high-quality healthcare, and we're looking for passionate clinicians who share this commitment and want to grow their clinical and forensic skills.

Working closely with the Police in custody suites, you'll play a crucial role in delivering expert care to detainees. With 24/7 service coverage and a strong, supportive team, you'll make a real difference every day.

About us
Alongside a Scottish Widows pension, you'll enjoy access to a Blue Light Card and Mitie MiDeals, offering thousands of shopping, leisure and lifestyle discounts. Your health and wellbeing are supported through a Virtual GP service and a comprehensive Employee Assistance Programme. Mitie Choices also allows you to tailor your benefits, including extra holiday, dental and health plans, critical illness cover and discounted gym membership. You can take part in share schemes such as Save as You Earn and the Share Incentive Plan, and outstanding performance is recognised through the Mitie Stars awards, with vouchers worth hundreds or even thousands of pounds. You can also earn £500 each time you refer a successful new colleague.
