We would welcome applications from doctors taking a break from training following completion of foundation training or equivalent; either because you are out of phase, planning to take a break from training for part of the year or looking for some alternative experience prior to deciding/commencing specialty training.
Applications are welcomed from those who have successfully completed Foundation Year 2 as a minimum. Less than full time (LTFT) applications will be considered but this will normally require a proportionate share of out of hours shifts.
**This post may close early if we receive an extremely high level of applications **
We currently have opportunities in medical specialities (including elderly medicine) there may be some flexibility about choice of specialities but mainly the specialities that will be offered are based on the gaps within the service. The post will include out of hours cover for all medical and elderly specialities including our acute admissions unit.
Our commitments to you would be:
A fixed term contract initially of up to 12 months potentially extendable by mutual agreement.
ST/CT1 (MT03) or FY2 pay(dependant on appointment to FY2 or FY3 role) with enhancements equivalent to doctors in training determined by the agreed rota; other terms and conditions will also mirror those for doctors in training.
Training opportunities and study leave entitlement.
A supervisor.
An e-portfolio if required.
GMC connection to the Trust and Responsible Officer.
An appraisal if required.
