Why Work Here
Empowering you to reach your potential
At the heart of our organisation is a culture grounded in trust, continuous learning, and inclusion. We are committed to ensuring that everyone - regardless of background, experience, or culture - has fair and equal access, experiences, and outcomes.
When you join us, you’ll be paired with a mentor to help you settle into your role and thrive. You’ll have an annual appraisal with your manager, giving you the opportunity to discuss your progress, set goals and explore development opportunities to support your career growth.
We believe in learning from our experiences, which is why we encourage speaking up if things go wrong. By sharing lessons across the hospital, we grow together and improve as a team.
To foster a strong sense of community and transparency, we hold regular ‘Town Hall’ meetings, keeping everyone informed and connected.
We are also proud to be part of the National Guardian Freedom to Speak Up network - ensuring that you always have someone to turn to if anything stands in the way of you doing your best work.
Career development and growth
At Holy Cross, we are committed to the continuous professional development of all our staff. Whether you are just starting out or looking to build on your existing skills, we offer a range of opportunities to help you succeed in your role.
What we offer:
Comprehensive induction
As a new starter, you will complete a training programme designed to give you the knowledge and confidence to succeed in your role from day one.
Ongoing learning
You’ll have access to regular training and development relevant to your role. This may include specialist areas such as tracheostomy care and enteral feeding, and other advanced clinical skills.
If you join us as a healthcare assistant, we’ll support you with a clear pathway that could lead to further qualifications including training to become a Nursing Associate.
We encourage all our staff to take ownership of their personal and professional growth by actively seeking out learning opportunities. We value curiosity, ambition and a commitment to continually improving skills and knowledge for the benefit of our patients and your career.
