An exciting opportunity has arisen to join our welcoming and supportive Phlebotomy team, working across outpatient clinics and inpatient wards at the Royal Liverpool and Broadgreen Hospital sites.
We are looking for someone who shares our values of kindness, respect and patient‑centred care. You do not need previous phlebotomy experience to apply — full training and ongoing support will be provided, making this a great opportunity for those starting or developing a career in healthcare.
As a Band 2 Phlebotomist, you will play an important role in helping patients receive the right care at the right time by collecting blood samples safely and accurately. You will often be the first person a patient meets, so a calm, reassuring manner and good communication skills are essential to ensure every patient is treated with dignity, compassion and understanding.
This is a 30‑hour per week post working across the Royal Liverpool and Broadgreen Hospital sites. The role is classed as flexible to meet service needs, meaning shifts are allocated by the service based on patient demand and rota requirements, rather than staff selecting their own shifts. Applicants must therefore be able to work a range of shifts on a rota basis.
Shifts will be scheduled between 7am and 5.30pm Monday to Friday, and 8am to 1pm at weekends, including Bank Holidays.
Following full training, you will take blood samples from patients in both outpatient clinic settings and on hospital wards. You will work as part of a supportive team, treating all patients with kindness, dignity and respect.
You will be responsible for collecting and labelling blood samples accurately, always following infection prevention and safety procedures, and ensuring samples are sent to the laboratory promptly. Good communication, teamwork and attention to detail are essential to support safe, effective care and a positive patient experience.
