About the Role
We are delighted to offer an exciting opportunity to gain 12 month experience in Respiratory Medicine and join the Respiratory Directorate at Manchester University Hospitals, mainly based at Wythenshawe Hospital.
The Respiratory Directorate is made up of several small inclusive subspecialty teams which include a diverse mix of clinicians and allied health professionals. These smaller teams work collegiately and supportively together to provide general respiratory care. There is a wide variation of interests among the Respiratory medical staff, with some preferring a purely clinical role, other taking an interest in leadership and innovation, and some with a wealth of experience and track record in academia. This provides new consultants with an infinite array of choice and post CCT training opportunities to shape their future careers as they would like them to be in a nurturing and rewarding environment.
The successful candidate will contribute to the general respiratory ward cover and will take part in the 1 in 20 on‑call for Respiratory Medicine.
