At Fairlie Healthcare Group, education isn't simply about delivering mandatory training.

It's about developing confident, highly skilled clinicians who provide exceptional care to people living with complex neurological conditions.

We're looking for an experienced Registered Nurse, with ITU or HDU experience to the level where you can competently teach complex procedures, who is passionate about clinical excellence and enjoys coaching others, but who is equally confident holding high standards, assessing competence and improving practice where it matters most.

If you're looking for a role where you can genuinely influence patient outcomes and develop future clinical leaders, we'd love to hear from you.

You'll spend time building and delivering engaging teaching sessions, supporting staff in practice, assessing competencies, identifying learning needs and helping managers raise clinical standards across the centre.

This is a highly visible role where you'll build trusted relationships while maintaining high expectations for safe, evidence-based practice.
