Job overview
An exciting opportunity has arisen for Specialty Doctors to work within the Department of Obstetrics & Gynaecology. The Princess Royal Hospital is a busy DGH with around 4500 deliveries a year in the beautiful county of Shropshire.

You will participate in the Tier 2 resident rota on a 1:11 basis which includes days, nights and weekends. You will also have access to gynaecology clinics and theatres. This is a great opportunity to gain experience in the field of O&G in this consultant led and delivered service. You will have the opportunity to take on a SITM as part of your CPD time and we will strongly encourage you to develop a special interest. We would be happy to support you with a CESR application if appropriate.

The main towns include: Bridgnorth, Ludlow, Market Drayton, Oswestry, Shrewsbury and Whitchurch (in Shropshire); Newport, Telford and Wellington (in Telford & Wrekin); and Newtown and Welshpool (in Powys) – all beautiful and unique.
Our main service locations are the Princess Royal Hospital (PRH) in Telford and the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital (RSH) in Shrewsbury which are located 20 minutes’ drive apart. Together they provide 99% of our activity. Both hospitals provide a wide range of acute hospital services including accident & emergency, outpatients, diagnostics, inpatient medical care and critical care.
Detailed job description and main responsibilities
A formal job plan will be agreed between the successful candidate and their Clinical Director, on behalf of the Medical Director within 3 months of starting in post. A full-time job plan is based on a 12 PA working week. The job plan will be reviewed annually and is a prospective agreement that sets out the doctor’s duties, responsibilities, and objectives for the coming year. It covers all aspects of a doctor’s professional practice including clinical work, teaching, research, education and managerial responsibilities. It will provide a clear schedule of commitments, both internal and external and will include personal objectives, detailing links to wider service improvements and trust strategic priorities.
For a full-time contract, the job plan will be divided on average per week over an 11-week cycle (pro-rata for a part time post) as:
11 CPD sessions (either 0900-1300 or 1300-1700)
31 regular clinical sessions (either 0900-1300 or 1300-1700)
7 shifts obstetric triage (0800-1900)
7 resident night shifts (2030-0900)
This gives a total job plan of PA
The allocation of PAs is reviewed and may be subject to adjustment when a further diary exercise is undertaken or if the service demands a review of the team job plan.
