This is for 9am-5pm with no on-call responsibilities although you are more than welcome to contribute to the gaps in the resident doctor on-call rota and will be compensated for doing so. This is a well-established role and is becoming available as the hospital has decided to fund a second post performing this role.

The post-holder would have a host ward and rotate to cover short-term vacancies on the Maudsley inpatient wards, and the female psychiatric intensive care unit based in the Maudsley Hospital. Each ward has a full time dedicated inpatient consultant psychiatrist, middle-grade doctor (ST4-6 or specialty doctor) and two SHO-level doctors (CT1-3, GP training residents, F2s). This is the second post of this kind in the hospital, so the successful applicant will be working with another doctor performing the same duties.
