Why St Wilfrid’s Hospice?

Our people and our values are at the heart of everything we do.

Each and every day, all of our people contribute towards transforming end of life care in the local community, making a real difference to the lives of our patients and their families through the wonderful work that they do.

Our people tell us that the purpose of the Hospice makes them feel that their job is important.

So, if you are someone who is looking for a real sense of job satisfaction, someone who is Compassionate, Professional, Progressive and Respectful, looking to work as part of a supportive, forward-thinking, friendly team, we hope to have a suitable vacancy for you!

If we don't have anything listed below, we'd still love to meet you and welcome you to our hospice community or you could volunteer in your area of interest, get involved in one of our events, or pop into our café.
