The role offers a unique opportunity to work at the forefront of ambulatory cancer care, supporting patients receiving complex systemic anti-cancer therapies, stem cell transplant pathways, cellular therapies and advanced supportive treatments that traditionally required inpatient admission.

- Work closely with consultants, advanced practitioners, pharmacists and the wider multidisciplinary team.

**Benefits**

The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust offers a stimulating and dynamic working environment, a wide range of staff benefits, learning and development opportunities and clear career pathways.

**Requirements**

- Registration with current UK professional registration.

- Evidence of ongoing professional development.

- Experience in intravenous drug administration.

- Sufficient post registration nursing experience in oncology or speciality to be confident and competent in using the required skills to do the job.

**Desirable**
