Urology Scrub
We are seeking an experienced Urology Scrub professional to join a busy operating theatre team. The successful candidate will provide safe, effective and compassionate support throughout a range of urological procedures, working closely with surgeons, anaesthetists, recovery staff and the wider multidisciplinary team.
Responsibilities will include preparing the operating theatre, checking equipment and instrumentation, and ensuring all required consumables are available before each procedure. You will scrub for urological surgery, anticipating the needs of the surgeon, maintaining aseptic technique and contributing to efficient, safe patient care. Procedures may include endoscopic, laparoscopic and open urological surgery, as well as emergency and day-case interventions.
You will be expected to complete accurate documentation, participate in instrument and swab counts, handle specimens correctly and follow infection prevention, safeguarding and health and safety procedures at all times. The role also involves supporting theatre audits, stock control, equipment maintenance and service development, while helping to maintain a positive learning environment for colleagues and students.
Applicants should hold current professional registration as a registered nurse or operating department practitioner, with relevant experience in a theatre environment and demonstrable urology scrub experience. A sound understanding of surgical instrumentation, sterile technique, patient safety and peri-operative practice is essential. Experience across a broad range of urological procedures would be advantageous.
You will be organised, calm under pressure and able to prioritise effectively in a fast-paced setting. Excellent communication and teamwork skills are required, together with a professional, compassionate approach to patients and colleagues. You must be willing to work flexibly across shifts, including weekends, evenings and on-call duties where required.
In return, you will have opportunities to develop your clinical skills, broaden your procedural experience and contribute to a supportive theatre service committed to high standards of care and continuous improvement.
