Job Summary
Symphony Healthcare Services have an exceptional opportunity for an enthusiastic GP to work in a dynamic, forward thinking practice in Burnham-on-Sea, Somerset. With multiple vacancies available and up to 8 sessions available with attractive and comprehensive remuneration package.
A special interest in a particular area of healthcare would be an advantage, but a willingness to share the load and work with our dedicated team is a must.
Symphony welcomes and supports newly qualified GPs by providing a GP Mentorship Scheme and supporting the NHS GP Fellowship Scheme so that you hit the ground running.
Burnham, Berrow and Highbridge Medical Centre is a large, well established practice with an on-site pharmacy, which provides a wide range of services to around 15,000 patients. We are part of Symphony Healthcare Services, the largest GP provider in Somerset so benefit from the experience and learning across a network of 20 practices.
Burnham-on-Sea is positioned on the edge of the Somerset levels and is home to one of the longest stretches of sandy beach in Europe and its iconic lighthouse. The town has retained much of its traditional charms and hosts a number of eateries, restaurants and shops. Burnham-on-Sea offers something for everyone from water sports and horse riding along the beach to exploring the nearby Mendip Hills and Quantocks.
Our transport links are great too - the M5, Bristol Airport and train routes to London mean that Burnham-on-Sea is very conveniently located.
Main duties of the job
As a Symphony GP, you would undertake all the clinical duties associated with a GP working in primary care, without the responsibilities and risks associated with being a partner. We can offer opportunities from salaried through to employed level GP posts depending on your experience and the level of responsibility you take on at the practice.
All GPs working for us are paid as Employees, unlike Partners, which means less risk for you and more time to focus on patient care. We put patients first, with our Employed and Consultant GPs working flexibly according to need, so contributing to areas such as QOF, QI, training and research projects providing a huge amount of variety to the role. However, our Salaried GPs have a clearly defined job plan setting out the hours of work and responsibility and tasks associated with the role.
Through annual appraisal, we encourage career development and progression and are keen to support GPs who wish to extend their role, or have specialist skills which can be utilised in primary care. We recognise that some GPs will wish to stay salaried, and some will wish to assume more responsibility once they have found their feet and aspire to Employed or Consultant roles.
About Us
A medical practice with a difference - Burnham & Berrow Medical Centre take a fresh approach to supporting and interacting with the local community. A modern, friendly, open environment where teamwork is an absolute priority.
Key Benefits:
So that our staff achieve the life balance they deserve, and are rewarded for their skills and experience, and flourish as individuals, we offer:
* flexible roles and working options
* competitive rates of pay
* NHS pension membership
* support for those with specialist skills and experience
* mentorship from experienced clinicians
* close links to the wider Somerset integrated health system, Somerset LMC, SGPET and the Somerset Training Hub
