At the forefront of cancer innovation, this is a rare opportunity to transition from frontline chemotherapy care into clinical research, while continuing to provide exceptional, compassionate support to patients.


In this role, you will deliver outstanding nursing care to patients involved in clinical trials, assessing, planning, implementing, and evaluating care in line with research protocols. You’ll support patients who are participating—or have the potential to participate—in ground‑breaking clinical trials, ensuring they are cared for in a safe, respectful, and supportive environment. Your role will also involve helping to maintain the highest standards of care and ethical practice by working in accordance with Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and collaborating closely with a multidisciplinary team.


This role is ideal for an experienced chemotherapy nurse who is curious about new therapies, motivated to influence the future of cancer care, and looking for a structured, supportive environment to develop new skills and grow professionally.

  • Current NMC registration
  • SACT Nurse (Chemotherapy Giver)
  • Experience in a haematology or oncology setting
  • Experience of Clinical Trials is desirable but not essential

Medical Technology Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Need To Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK medical technology hiring has shifted from title‑led CV screens to capability‑driven assessments that emphasise regulatory‑aware product delivery (QMS, ISO 13485), software lifecycle & risk (IEC 62304/14971), usability (IEC 62366), clinical & regulatory strategy (MDR/UKCA), device cyber security & privacy, and measurable patient/clinical and commercial impact. This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews & how to prepare—especially for SaMD engineers, AI/ML in medical devices, product & quality engineers, regulatory/clinical affairs specialists, validation/verification, manufacturing/operations, and digital health roles. Who this is for: Software/firmware engineers in medtech, SaMD/AI engineers, systems & verification engineers, quality & regulatory affairs (QARA), clinical evaluation/PMCF specialists, human factors engineers, medical device cyber security & privacy, test/validation, manufacturing & operations, field/service engineers, and medtech product managers in the UK.

Why Medical Technology Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Medical technology (medtech) is transforming healthcare in the UK — from wearable sensors to AI diagnostic tools, from surgical robots to telemedicine platforms. Advances in hardware, software, data and connectivity are enabling more personalized, efficient and accessible care. But with great power comes great responsibility. As medical devices and health technologies enter hospitals, clinics and consumers’ homes, professionals in this domain must master much more than engineering and algorithms. They must also understand law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design. That is, medtech careers are now deeply multidisciplinary. In this article, we explore why medical technology careers in the UK are becoming more multidisciplinary, how these five allied fields now intersect with medtech work, and what job-seekers and employers should do to succeed in this evolving ecosystem.

Medical Technology Team Structures Explained: Who Does What in a Modern MedTech Department

Medical technology (MedTech) spans everything from wearable health devices and surgical robots to diagnostic imaging, in-vitro diagnostics (IVD), digital therapeutics, AI-driven triage, and Class I–III medical devices. In the UK, the sector touches NHS care pathways, private providers, and global markets—with stringent expectations for safety, clinical evidence, cybersecurity, and data privacy. As ventures scale from prototype to regulated product, clear team structures become the difference between promising pilots and licensed, market-ready devices. Whether you’re hiring your first clinical specialist or applying for a role in QA/RA, this guide explains who does what in a modern MedTech department, how functions collaborate across the product lifecycle, UK-typical skill sets and salaries, common pitfalls, and best practices for building a resilient team.
