About Us

We’ve spent over 40 years helping people die in peace, and with dignity. Combining compassion with clinical expertise, we provide patients with the best possible care at the end of their lives.

We’re here for the people around our patients too – those closest to them. Before, during and after a bereavement, we provide support that’s remembered forever.

We think it’s that unforgettable support that inspires people to give back to St Peter’s. To fundraise for us. Donate. Volunteer. We’re not exaggerating when we say that we couldn’t do what we do without our wonderful supporters. We really can’t thank them enough.

We want to help many more people to die well. And we’re doing this by teaching others. As a centre of educational excellence, we share our skills with other health professionals, helping the NHS and care homes to provide better end-of-life care.

We’re here for all, for free, forever.

The Benefits

If you join our clinical team, we offer NHS Agenda for Change benefits such as:

• Generous holiday entitlement and recognition for previous NHS service (up to 33 days for 10 years' service)
• Continuation in the NHS pension scheme for existing members
• Recognition of previous NHS service for sick pay

There are many benefits to working at St Peter’s including:

• 27 days’ holiday plus bank holidays pro rata. This increases the longer you’re with us
• Pension, with employer matched contributions up to 6%

Equity and Diversity

We want our teams to reflect the diversity of our community – and we want everyone to feel that they belong. That’s why we’ve joined ENEI: Employers Network for Equality and Inclusion. This is a UK based, not-for-profit organisation that helps employers build and maintain diverse teams and inclusive cultures. We’re really pleased to have ENEI supporting us on our Equity, Diversity and Inclusion journey.

Just as we offer care to all, we welcome applications from everyone. We want to hear from you regardless of your age, disability, religion or belief, sex, race, sexual orientation, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, and pregnancy and maternity.
