Be part of the MY Team

We are an acute trust caring for over one million people in Wakefield and Kirklees. Our 10,000 staff members work in patients’ homes, the community, and our three hospitals in Pontefract, Dewsbury, and Pinderfields (Wakefield).

We are moving to a new recruitment platform — don’t worry, all our vacancies are still advertised on NHS Jobs. The only change is that if the job was posted after 28 April, you’ll be directed to apply through our new careers site.

During this transition period, we recommend using NHS Jobs to browse all our current vacancies, as it will reflect everything we have available.
