Job description

This is a fixed-term opportunity for a Trust Grade Doctor in Obstetrics and Gynaecology based in Exeter. As an inclusive employer, the Royal Devon values diversity and is committed to creating a culture of inclusivity where everyone can be themselves and reach their full potential. We believe in fostering a sense of belonging and actively encourage applications from individuals of all backgrounds, cultures, and abilities. We recognise the advantages of having a diverse workforce that reflects the communities we serve. Preference will be given to staff with 'Priority' and 'At Risk' status including NHS At Risk staff throughout Devon. The Royal Devon University Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust reserves the right to close vacancy when sufficient applications have been received. The Royal Devon University Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust was established in April 2022, bringing together the expertise of both the Royal Devon and Exeter NHS Foundation Trust and Northern Devon Healthcare NHS Trust. Stretching across Northern, Eastern and Mid Devon, we have a workforce of over 15,000 staff, making us the largest employer in Devon. Our core services, which we provide to more than 615,000 people, cover more than 2,000 square miles across Devon, while some of our specialist services cover the whole of the peninsula, extending our reach as far as Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. We deliver a wide range of emergency, specialist and general medical services through North Devon District Hospital and the Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital (Wonford). Alongside our two acute hospitals, we provide integrated health and social care services across a variety of settings, including community inpatient hospitals, outpatient clinics, and within people's own homes. We also offer primary care services, a range of specialist community services, and Sexual Assault Referral Centres (SARC). Our state-of-the-art equipment, leading technologies and strong links to local universities put us at the forefront of research and innovations, enabling us to provide world-class care to our local communities. These include benign gynaecological surgery, ambulatory gynaecology, urogynaecology, vulval disease, colposcopy and advanced labour ward practice. This post will also contain a resident on call commitment at second on call (Registrar) level which is a 1 in 8 full shift rota. The successful candidate would be expected to contribute to teaching of both undergraduates and doctors in training, and to take an active role in the dynamic audit and governance functions of the department. The unit has an excellent reputation for education with protected time for teaching and consultant led educational supervision. It provides obstetric care to 4000 women per year and has an equally busy benign gynaecology unit, and is a gynaecological cancer centre.
