Senior Clinical Fellow (STR3+ equivalent)

This is a new full-time Senior Clinical Fellow post for 6 months, responding to service needs.

The role is based in the Department of Neurology as a Senior Clinical Fellow (ST3/IMT3 equivalent). The postholder will work alongside neurology trainees and junior doctors, with clinical responsibilities including clerking non-elective patients admitted under neurology, providing clinical support in the day-to-day care and management of neurology inpatients under supervision, and completing discharge summaries. The ability to perform lumbar punctures is highly desirable.

The postholder will participate in the neurology on-call rota, which includes day shifts on Saturdays and Sundays once every six weekends, under supervision of the on-call consultant.

Provision will be made for participation in outpatient neurology clinics. There is a weekly departmental educational meeting and an excellent neuroradiology meeting every Thursday morning discussing inpatient neuroradiology.

Additionally, some GIM work will be undertaken, currently in 2-week blocks in acute medicine, with an expectation of two such blocks within the 6-month period.

Applicants unable to undertake full-time duties will be considered and the job content will be adjusted accordingly in consultation with colleagues and management.

We welcome applications regardless of age, disability, gender, sexual orientation, race, or religion. People with disabilities will be offered an interview if they meet the minimum criteria. The Trust supports job sharing and flexible working.
