We're looking for a Scrub Theatre Practitioner to join our Theatres team at The Portland Hospital. As the UK's only private hospital dedicated exclusively to women and children, and the largest private children's hospital in the country, it offers a distinctive clinical environment where no two days feel the same. From routine ENT surgery to cardiac and spinal procedures, and through to our fully private maternity service supporting over 1,600 births each year, colleagues experience a level of variety and exposure that is rare in a private setting.

As a Scrub Theatre Practitioner in our theatres, you'll be part of a compassionate and highly skilled team that works closely with leading consultants and specialists from major teaching hospitals. You'll rotate across our state‑of‑the‑art elective theatres and hybrid theatre, gaining valuable experience in acute and specialist procedures. This is a role that gives you breadth and depth, whether you're supporting paediatric cases, obstetrics, gynaecology or expanding your expertise into new areas. It's a fast‑paced, technology‑rich environment where your skills will grow, your confidence will build and your contribution will be truly valued.
