Key Responsibilities

• Perform venepuncture and capillary blood sampling procedures on patients of all ages, following strict clinical protocols and infection control guidelines.
• Correctly label, handle, and process blood samples for laboratory analysis, ensuring impeccable patient identification and sample integrity to prevent diagnostic errors.
• Provide clear, reassuring communication and excellent patient care, managing patient anxiety and ensuring a comfortable experience before, during, and after the procedure.
• Maintain and manage clinical stock levels, including needles, vacutainers, and other phlebotomy supplies, and ensure all equipment is cleaned and stored according to health and safety standards.
• Accurately update patient records and electronic systems, adhering to data protection laws (GDPR) and contributing to the efficient running of the clinic or surgery.

What We're Looking For

• A recognised qualification in Phlebotomy (e.g., Level 2 or 3 Diploma) and proven experience in a similar clinical role, preferably within a UK healthcare setting.
• Exceptional interpersonal skills with a compassionate, patient-centred approach and the ability to work effectively under pressure in a busy environment.
• A thorough understanding of health and safety, infection control (including sharps disposal), and relevant clinical governance frameworks.
• Reliability, flexibility, and a professional registration with a relevant body (e.g., the National Association of Phlebotomists) is highly desirable.
