Paediatric Clinical Lead - Community Complex Care
Location: Bristol / Somerset / Gloucestershire
Salary: Up to £55,000 plus £5,000 car allowance
Working Pattern: Monday to Friday, hybrid working, no nights or weekends

Are you a senior children’s nurse looking for a Paediatric Clinical Lead role that offers genuine clinical autonomy, a manageable caseload, and an excellent work-life balance?

This opportunity allows you to lead a small caseload of just 6 community paediatric complex care packages, giving you the time and clinical headspace to focus on quality, safety, and family-centred care. You will join a large, established, and award-winning complex care provider delivering specialist community services across Bristol and Somerset.

The Role As a Paediatric Clinical Lead, you will act as the named clinical lead for your allocated packages. You will have protected time for assessments, care planning, and clinical oversight, rather than rota-filling or firefighting shifts.
