Job Summary

NHS Blood and Transplant is an integral part of the NHS. Operating a network of centres across England, we collect around 2 million units of blood and tissues a year, converting them into safe and effective blood components, blood and tissue products for use in the treatment of patients.

We'll rely on you to carry out various duties, using different processing/ laboratory equipment to manufacture a range of blood components. Quality control is another key aspect of the role, so you'll also have to perform visual checks on products and processing, as well as undertaking environmental monitoring.

To be considered you’ll need an A level or NVQ level 3 in a science subject, or experience of working within NHSBT. Alternatively, you’ll either hold or be working towards a Foundation Degree. Flexible in your approach and a good team player, you must be able to keep clear, accurate records.
