We are looking to further expand our senior clinical fellow workforce to enable us to strengthen our team to meet the ever-increasing demands on our service and to allow further growth and development.

The posts are being offered at senior clinical fellow / registrar level. Appointments are for 6 months in the first instance.

Successful applicants will work in a dynamic friendly environment within acute medicine.Although the posts are of non-training grade, there will be direct Consultant supervision and an educational programme including annual appraisal, 4-monthly supervisor meetings, access to an e-portfolio, study leave and a study leave budget.

We also run a daily acute medicine review clinic which aids in the facilitation of early discharge and outpatient reviews.

The post holder will be expected to work at registrar level and will therefore have the experience and competencies to do so within the NHS. The post will also involve a contribution to the general medical on-call rota.
