Step into a transformative travel assignment as a Registered Nurse specializing in the OR, based in Montclair, New Jersey, where every procedure is a chance to elevate patient outcomes and your professional profile. This opportunity begins on 03/02/2026, inviting you to immerse yourself in contemporary surgical suites, collaborate with top anesthesia and surgical teams, and expand your clinical repertoire across a spectrum of procedures. While you plan your next move, you’ll discover the beauty of New Jersey—from the vibrant arts scene in nearby cities to leafy parks, charming neighborhoods, and family-friendly communities that make Montclair a welcoming home away from home. The role is designed with flexibility in mind, offering weeks-long engagements that allow you to balance skill-building with personal exploration in a way that suits your career trajectory and life pace. While the duration is expressed in weeks, each assignment is crafted to maximize your growth, exposure, and earning potential, with weekly pay of 2,138 to 2,250 dollars and a transparent, collaborative hiring process. Note that hours aren’t guaranteed, but the steady rhythm of OR case volume across facilities helps you plan with confidence.
Montclair’s location benefits pair with the promise of nationwide opportunities. You’ll enjoy access to New York City’s cultural treasures while experiencing a distinctly supportive, close-knit community at home in Montclair. Restaurants, parks, and festivals provide a balanced lifestyle, and the region’s excellent transportation links make weekend excursions or day trips to nearby beaches, forests, or historic sites effortlessly rewarding. Beyond New Jersey, this program offers you the chance to work across multiple U.S. locations, broadening your professional network with surgeons, perioperative teams, and operating room staff across diverse hospital environments. The collaborative cohort atmosphere supports ongoing learning, peer mentorship, and access to resources that elevate your perioperative practice, with 24/7 travel support ensuring you’re never navigating a new site alone.
Role Specifics and Benefits: In the OR you’ll circulate and scrub, maintain sterile technique, monitor patient safety, assist anesthesia teams, and prepare patients for complex procedures, including robotics and minimally invasive surgeries. You’ll complete meticulous preoperative checks, document intraoperative events, and participate in post-anesthesia care handoffs, all while upholding the highest standards of asepsis and patient advocacy. This position is designed to enhance your technical precision, decision-making acumen, and collaboration with multidisciplinary teams, providing opportunities to advance into leadership roles, specialty certifications, or expanded perioperative responsibilities. Our benefits are competitive and designed to recognize your expertise: a signing incentive, housing assistance or a housing stipend where eligible, and options for contract extensions to continue your growth path. You’ll have comprehensive support from our travel concierge and clinical operations teams, with round-the-clock assistance—24/7—so you can focus on the care you deliver while we manage logistics, credentialing, and site orientations. You’ll also receive competitive pay and a clear pathway to expanded assignments that align with your preferred settings and procedures.
