  • Why work for us?

Why work for us?

We couldn't keep making such a difference in our local community without experienced and dedicated staff and volunteers. We want to attract the highest calibre of professionals to work in every area of our organisation.

Whether you're working directly with patients or providing vital support to the running of the hospice, you'll be contributing to us providing outstanding palliative care for people in our community. Day after day, you'll be working with our fantastic team and making a real difference to the lives of local families.

We recruit to a number of roles at our purpose-built hospice set in beautiful landscaped gardens, as well as in the wider community in our retail shops.

Keep an eye on our up to date vacancies page for positions that may interest you.

All staff benefit from:

  • Generous holiday entitlement commencing at 27 days per year plus bank holidays (pro rata if part time), increasing with service
  • An excellent pension scheme (including access to the NHS pension scheme for existing contributors)
  • Great opportunities for training and development
  • Free on-site parking at the hospice

If you would like to come and look around the hospice you're more than welcome, please get in touch to arrange with us.

We are proud to be a part of the Disability Confident Scheme, and are committed to upholding our status as an equal opportunities employer.
