RTT Validation Clerk
Role summary
Written by MyIslandJob from the job title and employer. See the employer's page for the full description.
The RTT Validation Clerk supports the review and validation of Referral to Treatment (RTT) waiting-list information within the NHS. Requirements typically include accurate data-entry and record-checking skills, good IT ability, attention to detail, and experience using databases, spreadsheets or patient administration systems. The successful candidate should communicate professionally, maintain confidentiality, manage competing deadlines and work effectively with clinical and administrative teams. Familiarity with NHS procedures, waiting-list rules and Welsh health-service systems would be advantageous, although training may be provided. Candidates are expected to demonstrate reliability, discretion, methodical working practices and a commitment to maintaining high-quality, accurate patient records.
Can I work in the UK?
Never pay anyone for a visa or a job offer. A real employer pays the permit costs and never asks you for money.
How it works
How it works: NHS nurses, doctors and allied health get a Health and Care Worker visa (about 3 weeks, no health surcharge); care workers lost this route on 22 July 2025.
Before you apply: Nurses, doctors and most allied health staff must be registered or licensed locally before they start: expect checks on your degree and licence, often an English test, and often an exam or an assessment. Ask the employer who handles it and how long it takes. Most pharma and device office jobs do not need it.
Watch for: Pay follows the NHS pay bands and is usually at least GBP 25,000. Nurses and allied health also need UK professional registration; care workers cannot be sponsored from abroad.
