Your NHS is gearing up to deliver the Covid-19 vaccine as soon as it's ready.

This will be the biggest immunisation programme of our time.

Can you help us?

We need experienced vaccinators, people we can train to vaccinate, and support staff, to step forward and work flexibly with us across Sussex over the winter months and into 2021.

We want to recruit from our local communities to make sure that we provide a safe and effective vaccination programme at the same time as continuing to offer timely access and minimal impact on other NHS services.

We need:

• Operational managers with experience in events and logistics

You will work alongside experienced senior clinicians in a customer-facing role to support delivery of vaccination services to thousands of people a day.
