Looking for a Chemotherapy Nurse role with more autonomy, better work-life balance and the time to deliver genuinely personalised cancer care?
I’m recruiting for one of the UK’s leading specialist healthcare providers, looking for an experienced Chemotherapy Nurse / SACT Nurse to deliver oncology and haematology treatments to patients in their own homes across South East London.
This is an excellent opportunity to step away from the pressures of a busy hospital environment while continuing to use your specialist oncology skills with greater independence, one-to-one patient care and no night shifts.

You’ll still be delivering specialist cancer treatment - just in a completely different environment.
Instead of moving between patients on a busy unit, you’ll provide dedicated one-to-one care in patients’ homes, manage your own diary and build stronger relationships throughout their treatment journey.
For experienced oncology nurses looking for more autonomy, meaningful patient contact and a better Monday-Friday work-life balance, it’s a fantastic next step.
If you’re a Chemotherapy Nurse, Community Chemotherapy Nurse, Oncology Nurse, SACT Nurse, Cancer Nurse or Haematology Nurse, I’d love to speak with you.
