Clinical Support Specialist in Mountain Ash, Rhondda Cynon Taf

Commercial Clinical Support | Medical Devices

£36,000 | 4 DAYS PER WEEK | COMPANY BENEFITS

Location: Mountain Ash, South Wales (near Cardiff)

Are you a Theatre Nurse or Scrub Practitioner who is ready for something a little different?

Have you built your career in the operating theatre and are now considering taking your clinical experience into the medical device industry?

This could be the opportunity you've been waiting for!

I'm recruiting for a fantastic Commercial Clinical Support opportunity within the medical device sector, where your clinical knowledge, surgical experience and understanding of the operating theatre environment will genuinely make a difference.

IMPORTANT: Previous operating theatre experience is ESSENTIAL. We're specifically looking for a Registered Nurse or Operating Department Practitioner with a genuine background in the surgical/theatre environment, ideally with scrub experience.

Ideally, we're also looking for someone who can combine strong clinical knowledge with some commercial awareness or experience, whether that's through working with medical devices, product evaluations, NHS procurement, tenders, suppliers or customer-facing healthcare environments.

AND THERE'S PLENTY TO GET EXCITED ABOUT:

• £36,000 annual salary

• 4-day working week – enjoy an extra day away from work!

• Attractive company benefits package

• Opportunity to develop your career within the medical device industry

• A chance to use your clinical expertise in a different and rewarding environment

SO, WHAT WILL YOU BE DOING?

This isn't a traditional nursing role, nor is it a sales position. It's an opportunity to bring your clinical knowledge into the commercial world.

You'll be involved in:

• Using your clinical expertise to support NHS tenders, bids and commercial proposals.

• Assessing and approving medical and surgical product samples, ensuring they meet clinical requirements and customer specifications.

• Helping identify and introduce new medical and surgical products.

• Providing clinical guidance and product expertise to colleagues across the business.

• Working alongside commercial, quality, operational and supplier teams to develop the right solutions for healthcare customers.

• Keeping up to date with clinical developments, NHS priorities and regulatory requirements.

WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?

The essential requirements are:

• Registered General Nurse with previous operating theatre experience, ideally scrub (Band 5 or above), OR a Registered Operating Department Practitioner with scrub experience.

• Recent clinical practice – within the last five years.

• Strong understanding of the surgical environment and clinical products used within operating theatres.

• Excellent communication skills, attention to detail and the confidence to engage with a range of stakeholders.

Commercial experience would be a real advantage, particularly exposure to:

• Medical devices and surgical products.

• Product evaluations and clinical assessments.

• NHS procurement, tenders and quotations.

• Working with medical device suppliers or commercial teams.

• Customer-facing healthcare environments.

Ideally, you'll bring a combination of clinical credibility and commercial understanding. We're particularly interested in people who have already had some exposure to the commercial side of healthcare and are keen to develop this further.

Please note: Operating theatre experience is essential. Applications from candidates without this background will not be suitable for this position.

A LITTLE MORE ABOUT THE PRACTICALITIES:

Salary: £36,000 per annum

Hours: 4 days per week

Contract: Part-time

Location: Mountain Ash, South Wales (near Cardiff)

Office attendance: You must be able to commute to and access the Mountain Ash office.

Benefits: Attractive company benefits package.

WHY MAKE THE MOVE?

Perhaps you're looking for a better work-life balance.

Perhaps you're ready to step away from the pressures of frontline clinical practice.

Or perhaps you'd simply like to use your clinical experience in a different way, combining it with your interest in the commercial side of healthcare.

Whatever your motivation, this is an opportunity to take your career in a new direction, develop valuable commercial experience and continue contributing to the healthcare sector.
