Job description

Are you a Podiatrist looking for a new or additional role with career development opportunities? Have you ever considered working within a prison environment, helping to rehabilitate and support offenders to live purposeful lives as members of the community?

Prisons are one of the most challenging yet rewarding places for healthcare professionals to work. If you are seeking a role where you can develop your existing skills and learn something new every day, then this is the place for you!

We are looking for a Podiatrist to join our team, working 8 hours a month at HMP Dovegate. There is no on-call or weekend work, supporting a strong work-life balance.

You will be part of a forward-thinking, innovative healthcare team, including GPs, nurses, pharmacists, physiotherapists, and mental health professionals, delivering high-quality, best-practice treatment. You will also be part of the wider MSK Health in Justice Team, which comprises physiotherapists and podiatrists working across 58 prisons nationwide. You will receive close support and mentorship from our Team Lead Podiatrist, along with access to an established appraisal system, in-service training, and funding for external clinical courses, providing an excellent supportive learning environment.
