As well as undertaking the mandatory training for your role, you will be given access to a wide range of eLearning and classroom based training.
All employees take part in an annual appraisal with their line manager where you will discuss your objectives, career aspirations and development needs.
We also offer a Further and Higher Education fund, where after 12 months of service the organisation will pay up to 70% of course fees.
Employee and Family Friendly
We have a number of policies to support flexible working and caring responsibilities.
If you are new to the area, and are looking for information on childcare, you can find out if you are eligible for tax-free childcare, and how to apply on the UK Government website at this link.
If you have children and are wondering what support is available for you then go to Parent Club, this is a Scottish Government website that provides information and resources for parents, carers or parents-to-be from pregnancy through the teenage age years. You can find more information at this link. Topics include health and wellbeing, finance and educational information and advice.
Pension Scheme
This includes everyone directly employed by NHS Scotland as well as medical, dental or ophthalmic practitioners (including trainees), people working for a general practice and associated staff working for certain approved employers and non-general practitioner providers.
