About the Role

We are expanding our Urology service at The Harborne Hospital and are seeking a Clinical Nurse Specialist to support the Birmingham Prostate Specialists Service. This full‑time role offers 37.5 hours per week, with flexibility for candidates who may prefer part‑time hours. You will play a key role in delivering specialist nursing care to patients with both benign and malignant urological conditions, providing expert education, treatment, and clinical support throughout their care pathway.

In this role, you will deliver comprehensive pre‑operative counselling for patients undergoing prostate cancer surgery, teach clean intermittent catheterisation and self‑dilatation, and carry out and interpret flow‑rate assessments and bladder scans. You will administer intravesical chemotherapy and immunotherapy, manage patients with painful bladder conditions, and coordinate MDT lists while participating in meetings remotely when required. You will support ward teams, contribute to audits, and communicate confidently with patients and carers, using your clinical judgement to make autonomous decisions. You will act as a knowledgeable resource for both patients and colleagues, ensuring high standards of care are consistently maintained. Alongside this, you will work within your professional code of practice, help refine clinical protocols, apply evidence‑based practice, and continue to develop your specialist knowledge.

What Will You Bring

  • Experience in urology surgical care
  • Strong clinical judgement and the ability to work autonomously
  • A patient‑centred approach with excellent communication skills
  • Desirable experience in oncology nursing
  • Familiarity with bladder scanners and flow‑rate monitoring
  • Commitment to evidence‑based practice and ongoing professional development
