At MFT staff perks go beyond pension schemes and professional development.

You will also enjoy excellent shopping, travel, and leisure discount as well as a range of healthcare and financial benefits to support you to be happy both in and out of work.

MFT create and encourage a culture of inclusion, providing equal opportunities for career development that are fair and transparent. We are committed to being a diverse and inclusive employer and foster a culture in which all staff feel valued and respected. In return we ask all our employees to make a commitment to our values.

Having a blood test done is often an essential step in a patient’s diagnosis/treatment and the care we give makes a real difference to this journey. To support this, it is necessary that you have excellent team working and communication skills and the desire to share knowledge and work within an inter-professional framework. You will be required to work flexibly which will include weekends and bank holidays.

This post will also require some community work on rotation therefore you must be able to travel throughout the locality, in a timely manner. You must have access to a car and hold a current driving license.

The post holder will need to attend a period of induction and training on commencement of the role.

Experience of dealing with patients and staff in the hospital environment or blood test clinics will be of benefit.

MFT is one of the largest NHS Trust In England with a turnover of £2.6bn & is on a different scale than most other NHS Trusts. We’re creating an exceptional integrated health & social care system for the 1 million patients who rely on our services every year.

Bringing together 10 hospitals & community services from across Manchester, Trafford & beyond, we champion collaborative working & transformation, encouraging our 28,000 workforce to pursue their most ambitious goals. We set standards that other Trusts seek to emulate so you’ll benefit from a scale of opportunity that is nothing short of extraordinary.

We’ve also created a digitally enabled organisation to improve clinical quality, patient & staff experience, operational effectiveness & driving research, and innovation through the introduction of Hive; our Electronic Patient Record system which launched in September 2022.

We’re proud to be a major academic Research Centre & Education provider, providing you with a robust infrastructure to encourage and facilitate high-quality research programmes. What’s more, we’re excited to be embarking on our Green Plan which sets out how MFT continues to play its part in making healthcare more sustainable.

At MFT, we create and foster a culture of inclusion and belonging, provide equal opportunities for career development that are fair, open, and transparent, protecting your health and wellbeing and shaping the future of our organisation together.
