Secondment Information
If you’re a current permanent NHS employee interested in a secondment, please speak with your current line manager first. You’ll need to complete the secondment request form (available on the HR/Recruitment intranet pages, along with the full policy) and get it signed before attending an interview. Bring the approved form with you as proof of agreement.

Visa and Sponsorship
If you need sponsorship to work in the UK, check the eligibility rules for Skilled Worker or Health and Care Worker visas on the UK Government website. NHS Forth Valley may sponsor suitable roles that meet salary and other criteria, but this is decided case-by-case after interview and pre-employment checks – it’s not automatic.
We also suggest overseas applicants for health and social care roles review the GOV.UK guidance: Applying for health and social care jobs in the UK from abroad
Application Guidance
Please ensure all responses in your application are original and genuinely reflect your own experience, skills, and knowledge. We discourage using AI tools, automated software, or third-party help to write or heavily edit your answers. Applications must be your personal work, and any breach could lead to withdrawal from the process.
Most updates will come via email, so keep an eye on your inbox (and junk folder) as well as your Jobtrain account.
Our Commitments
NHS Forth Valley welcomes applications from everyone and is proud to guarantee an interview for disabled candidates who meet the essential criteria. If you need any adjustments for your application or interview, call the Recruitment Office on 0330 041 4694.
