• improving flexible working
• reducing travel through enhanced use of technology
• embracing mobile working
• upgrading the desktop environment alongside the adoption of tablet computing.

Our department has staff based in both our UK headquarters in central London and our office at Cardiff Gate.

Why apply?

In our IT department you’ll participate in exciting new projects that will have the potential to transform the way the RCN works. Your hard work will have a direct impact on our staff and subsequently our members, who will benefit from the improvements you introduce and maintain.
