<p>UK-Med is a frontline medical aid charity. Born of the British National Health Service, we’ve been working for over 30 years towards a world where everyone has the healthcare they need when crises or disasters hit.</p>
<p>We are seeking Infectious Disease (ID) Nurse that are enthusiastic about extending their knowledge and skills within a humanitarian environment. You will be able to make yourself available to travel and work internationally at short notice for a minimum of 6 weeks with a quarantine period (longer availability is highly desirable) to join our register.

We will also prioritise applicants from those who speak French.</p>
<p>Our ideal candidates will be confident and capable in assessing the current practices, developing action plans and implementation of necessary actions. Additional qualifications and experience in training in facility assessment and project management would be a distinct advantage. Experience practicing nursing in low resource / humanitarian contexts is highly desirable but not essential.</p>
<p>You must hold a current nursing license and be able to demonstrate your current and unconditional membership of a suitable registering organisation. You must hold specific qualifications / professional registration in Nursing Science/Degree.</p>
<p>You will be determined, high performing, compassionate and collaborative, as well as being committed to learning and supporting others to learn. Language skills will be an advantage. We offer a competitive salary and benefit along with a friendly working environment and the opportunity to make a real difference through and influential role in humanitarian programming.</p>
