Following the April 2025 ministerial announcement and the publication of new national Agenda for Change job profile templates for nursing and midwifery roles, NHS organisations are now expected to review relevant posts within six months – as outlined in the Agenda for Change handbook.
This is a significant opportunity to ensure your workforce structures reflect the latest national guidance while maintaining fairness, consistency and partnership working.
At NHS Arden & GEM CSU, we have the capacity and expertise to support you in reviewing and matching revised job descriptions against the new profiles — helping you meet both your compliance responsibilities and workforce priorities.
Our specialist job evaluation support will help you to:
- Complete your review within the six-month national timeframe
- Ensure consistent and equitable job matching across all relevant roles
- Provide assurance to staff through partnership working with trained CSU and staff side matchers
- Reduce internal pressure by accessing additional expert capacity
- Maintain alignment with national standards and benchmarking across other NHS organisations
Whether you're leading workforce transformation from an HR or clinical perspective, our service is designed to help you complete this work efficiently, fairly and in line with best practice.
