A career like no other

Working in health and care offers a career like no other, where you’ll get to make a genuine difference to people’s lives, every single day.

Across Humber and North Yorkshire, we’re committed to supporting and developing our people to be equipped with the right skills to make that difference, providing safe, high-quality care for our local populations.

One partnership, many opportunities

Opportunities to make a difference in health and care are much broader than solely roles in the NHS.

Our health and care partnership includes multiple organisations working together to provide safe, high-quality care for local people. From local authorities (local councils), voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations like local charities and community groups; through to big NHS trusts and ambulance services – we work together to support local people whatever their care needs.

You can find out more about our partnership on our ‘about us’ pages.

Take a look at the opportunities for your next career step in the sections below and find out how making a difference to the lives of others can make a difference to yours too.
