  • The opportunity

  • British Heart Foundation (BHF) is seeking an experienced and motivated Nurse to join our Clinical Team and play a high impact role, using their clinical expertise to improve heart health.

    As a Senior Cardiac Nurse, you’ll be an expert clinical resource, providing clinical oversight and governance for public‑facing campaigns, health information and digital content. You’ll work closely with colleagues across Medical and our Marketing, Fundraising and Engagement team to ensure clinical accuracy and high standards throughout. Following training, you’ll also act as a media spokesperson, contributing to press statements and interviews across print, broadcast and social media.

    The role will support BHF’s Heart Helpline and Genetic Information Service, offering evidence‑based information and compassionate support directly to the public. You will build strong relationships with internal and external stakeholders and help protect and enhance BHF’s clinical reputation.

    Working arrangements

    Please note this is an 18-month fixed-term contract. 

    This is a blended role, where your work will be dually located between your home and at least one day a week at our London offices, flexibility on this will be required and the day attending a BHF office won't necessarily be the same each week.
