You will be part of the regional teams in the London & Southwest or Wales and may be home-based or based in Milton Keynes. There will be a requirement to travel to other parts of the UK to engage with stakeholders and promote the OU Nursing programmes. Successful candidates will also require an enhanced DBS check.
