About the company & team

In our Operating Rooms department, we can be found 99% of the time in, you guessed it, the operating room. Together with all surgical assistants, we form a close-knit team. Trust is the keyword here. Within the various teams, there is plenty of room for personal input and development. For example, we offer internal training for surgical assistants with leadership ambitions. We believe learning from each other is important. Does a colleague have less experience? Then we provide the best guidance available.

Radboudumc has an Independent Procurement Team (ZUT). This team is deployed for organ donation and organ transplantation. A unique team that not every hospital has. Within the department, there are various opportunities for career growth. Together, we look at the possibilities.

"The OR team is a team you want to belong to, because we excel in what we do. Do you want to get the best out of yourself and out of the day? Then we offer you a workplace that makes this possible." Tessa, surgical assistant.

At the Operating Rooms department, you work on the organization of high-quality, safe operative care for approximately 25,000 patients per year. You support all surgical specialties, several diagnostic specialties, and the Anesthesiology department. With 25 operating rooms, surgical day treatment, induction rooms, the Post Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU), and the ultra-modern MITeC OR complex, we offer top-clinical care and work continuously on innovation and the improvement of patient care. You become part of a team of committed colleagues in which collaboration and personal attention are central. We pay a lot of attention to an attractive working environment, team spirit, and personal development, with activities such as the annual OR symposium, training days, and the OR bowling tournament.
