Fertility Nursing Careers | The Evewell, London
patient focused care

Fertility nursing at The Evewell

Our nurses don’t assist with fertility treatment. They coordinate it, leading each patient’s care across our Harley Street and West London clinics, from first consultation through to outcome.

Working in the Nursing team

In most fertility clinics, nursing runs alongside the treatment pathway. Here, our nurses lead and coordinate patient care from the first consultation onwards.

You’ll run nurse consultations, actively participate in daily patient case reviews, manage complex cases, and turn decisions into a plan the patient understands and can act on.

And because you’re the person speaking to patients most days, you’re the person who knows them best. How someone’s actually coping, what they’ve taken in, what they’ve quietly not asked about. That context goes into the room where clinical decisions get made, rather than sitting outside it.

You’ll also have something rare in fertility nursing: time. Time in a nurse consultation. Time to do a medication teach properly, so nobody goes home holding a box of drugs and a leaflet, hoping for the best. Time to call someone back.

What's different about nursing here

Fertility nursing looks similar from the outside wherever you do it. These are the parts of the job at The Evewell that genuinely aren’t standard.

Coordinating and managing each patient’s treatment is the job here, not something added on top of it.

Our nurses bring the patient context into the daily bloods review, and what you say there shapes what happens next.

Case management and patient case reviews are led by the nursing team, with the doctors and embryologists around you rather than above you.

You’ll be the one who turns an intimidating protocol into something a patient can actually follow at their kitchen table on a Tuesday
night.

Senior nurses teach. Newer nurses get taught.

Nobody’s left to work it out from the guidelines.

Embryology, patient
services, the doctors. We’re small enough that you can walk over and ask, and the knowledge goes both ways.

How we train you

New nurses at The Evewell get seven to eight weeks of induction across both clinics before going onto the rota.

You’ll be paired with a buddy and work through an established training and competency pathway, rather than the more common arrangement of shadowing someone and seeing how you get on. The induction covers assisting with procedures, recovery after sedation, nurse consultations, reviewing results, and contacting patients with next steps. You come off as competent, not just familiar.

You don’t need fertility experience to apply. A lot of our nurses and midwives came from other specialities, and the induction is built on that assumption rather than in spite of it.

After that, learning doesn’t stop being funded. We support external CPD learning and aim to get every member of the department to at least one conference, seminar, or educational day a year.

What you get, beyond the job itself

Fertility nursing is often sold as rewarding, and then the rota does the rest of the talking. So these are the practical terms.

Most private nursing roles are salaried, which quietly means the extra hours are expected. If you work over at The Evewell, you’re paid for it.

Designed by the nursing team rather than handed down to it, and we’re currently looking at expanding how it works.

A good amount of the coordination work doesn’t need to happen inside a clinic, so it doesn’t have to.

Training in pelvic ultrasound, and enough scanning volume to become genuinely confident rather than technically signed off.

For every member of the
department, not just the senior end of it.

Our nursing leads work in the clinics, not somewhere above them.

Nurses here have moved into other departments
when their interests changed, and the clinics opening up mean more of that, not less.

We’re building this into the nursing role, and it’s the next major step in what our nurses will do.

Additional training
Scan training, and what comes after it

Nurses at The Evewell can apply for pelvic ultrasound scanning training, and it’s the first thing candidates ask about. It’s a real, transferable clinical skill, and it isn’t widely offered to fertility nurses.

Where it is offered, it often comes without the scanning volume to build proper confidence. Here you’ll get both, plus the training time to do it without squeezing it around a full clinical list.

Scanning is also the start of something wider. We’re extending what nurses do procedurally, with PRP next and nurse prescribing in development after that. If you want to keep adding to what you can do clinically, this department is actively building the route.

career progression

Where this role goes next

The nursing team at The Evewell has a defined route, with competencies for each level written down rather than left to interpretation.

We promote internally wherever we can. Movement from junior to mid to senior depends on your fertility experience and on the competencies below, and none of it is a mystery to you while you’re doing it. Expand any level to see what it involves and what it takes to get there.

Progression here isn’t only vertical. As we’ve grown, nurses have moved into other departments when they’ve found an interest elsewhere, whether that’s patient services, quality, or elsewhere. Once you’re inside The Evewell, the door to the rest of it is open.

Healthcare Assistant

Healthcare Assistant

Working alongside the nursing team, you’ll assist in theatre and recovery, take bloods, prepare rooms and manage samples and stock. It’s the role that keeps the clinical day moving, and it’s the fastest way to learn how a fertility clinic actually works.

Junior Fertility Nurse or Midwife

Junior Fertility Nurse or Midwife

Your first fertility nursing role, where you learn the treatment cycle from the inside. You’ll coordinate treatment plans, teach patients to self-administer their drugs, assist in theatre, recover patients after sedation, and begin your ultrasound scanning training.

Fertility Nurse or Midwife

Fertility Nurse or Midwife

You’re running your own caseload now. You’ll lead nurse consultations and take informed consent, coordinate treatment cycles from start to finish, scan patients for embryo transfer, and share responsibility for controlled drugs across the clinic.

Senior Fertility Nurse or Midwife

Senior Fertility Nurse or Midwife

The experienced end of the team, where you’re relied on for judgement as much as for hands. You’ll manage complex cases, hold responsibility for controlled drugs and stock, and mentor the nurses coming up behind you.

Lead Nurse

Lead Nurse

Running the nursing team on a site, day to day. You’ll hold the rota, lead the daily case reviews, and be the person the team comes to when a case gets complicated.

Nursing Manager and above

Nursing Manager and above

Leading the nursing function across both clinics, with ownership of standards, training and the competency pathway everyone else moves through.

Meet the team

The team you’d be working with on a day-to-day basis.

Life at The Evewell

Two clinics, one team, and a group of people who genuinely like working together. You can tell a lot about a clinic by how its staff treat each other when nobody’s watching, so here’s ours.

Pamela's Career Story

Pamela Poyhonen, Acting Lead Nurse, The Evewell West London

“I am proud to work in a clinic where each team truly cares for the patient and works hard together to guarantee the best possible outcomes. I can see how the individualised treatment plans work and have learned so much since starting at The Evewell. We have an amazing nursing team that feels like a family away from home.”

Find out more...

Our nurses coordinate and manage patient care through treatment, rather than assisting with it.

Day to day that means leading nurse consultations, running patient case reviews, managing complex cases, booking appointments and delivering results, and coordinating treatment plans off the back of the daily Bloods Review meeting.

Clinically you’ll support gynaecological and fertility procedures,
including recovery after sedation, phlebotomy, IV infusions and IM and S/C medications.

Trained nurses also carry out pelvic ultrasound scans.

No. The Evewell recruits nurses and midwives from other specialties and trains them, and our junior roles specifically don’t require fertility experience. What we’re looking for is a nursing or midwifery background and a genuine interest in this kind of care.

New nurses get seven to eight weeks of induction across both our Harley Street and West London clinics before joining the rota. You’re paired with a buddy and work through a structured training and competency pathway covering procedures, recovery, nurse consultations, reviewing results and patient contact.

Yes. Nurses at The Evewell can apply for training in pelvic ultrasound scanning,
and it’s one of the most popular reasons people join us. You’ll get the training and the scanning volume to build real confidence, not just a signed competency.

Our nursing team works compressed hours on a four and six rota, with hybrid working available for the parts of the role that don’t need to happen in clinic.

The rota was designed by the nursing team themselves, and we’re currently looking at
expanding how it works.

Yes. Overtime at The Evewell is paid, which isn’t the case in a lot of private nursing roles where a salaried contract quietly absorbs the extra hours.

There’s a defined progression pathway through the nursing team, from junior to mid to senior and beyond, with the competencies for each level set out in writing.

We promote internally wherever we can, and we’re expanding what nurses here do
clinically, starting with ultrasound scanning and moving on to PRP and nurse prescribing.

Yes. Nurses at The Evewell have moved across into other departments when their interests have changed, and as the clinics grow there’s more of that available, not
less.

The Evewell has two London clinics, one on Harley Street and one in Hammersmith, West London, and nursing works across both. Your induction covers both sites from the
start.
