The Royal College of Nursing is the world’s largest nursing professional college and trade union. With a membership of over half a million registered nurses, midwives, health visitors, nursing students, health care assistants, nursing associates, assistant practitioners and nurse cadets, RCN members work across hospital and community settings in the NHS and the independent sector and are spread across 100 branches in 12 countries and regions.
As part of the department’s leadership team, you will help us shape the health and care policy debate by monitoring the policy and political environment for salient and emerging issues, working closely with a wide range of internal and external senior stakeholders to influence policy development, supporting direct member engagement, and ultimately achieving change on behalf of the nursing profession.
You’ll also play a key role in learning from and influencing EU and international developments that impact UK and global nursing.
