Are you a passionate physician seeking to join a genuinely friendly team of specialists willing to support each other in the delivery of high-quality healthcare services for Medicine for Older People?

Join North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust where you will find a strong sense of community and support and where you can develop further your medical skills under the guidance of an inspiring team.

Being an intrinsic part of a team of 15 Consultants spread across all our main hospital sites, you will assist in the development of the service to address emerging healthcare needs of our growing population that we serve regionally.

Our new Peterborough City Hospital will provide you with an exciting working environment, new technology and the opportunity for research and development.

We are looking for an ambitious team player who can embrace new ways of working and take an active lead in the development of Older Persons’ Services.

You will be a member of the Royal College of Physicians or have equivalent experience and training and must be fully registered with a license to practice with the GMC with specialist registration in Geriatric Medicine or be within 6 months of CCT for these specialties.

We believe in flexible working, so we are offering full-time, part-time or job share assignments.

The job plan has been created to contain a total of 10 PAs, 8.5 clinical programmed activities and 1.5 SPA sessions. SPAs will include audit and clinical governance, teaching, appraisals, revalidation, CPD and research. Clinical sessions include ward rounds, sub-specialty work and clinical admin plus communication with carers.

The role may require commitments to participate in the on-call rota for Acute Medicine. At Peterborough City Hospital, there is a 1 in 4 out of hours rota from 8am-2pm on a Sunday (whilst having a weekday off) on the acute frailty unit.

You will be an essential part of a multidisciplinary team responsible for delivering high quality care in Medicine for Older People in the community and inpatient settings.

Teaching and training of junior staff, medical students, nurses and other professionals allied to medicine are mandatory to your role and to the development of the service.

You will actively participate in both departmental and Trust matters concerning Clinical Governance and Audit.

As part of your personal and professional development, you will take part in continuing medical education (CME) and demonstrate commitment to revalidation.

North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust provides acute care to our local communities via two District General Hospitals in Peterborough and Huntingdon, and a community hospital in Stamford.

We are promoting flexible working and a health work/home life balance. Agile working options are automatically considered for all roles within the Trust.

We welcome and encourage applications from people of all backgrounds. We particularly encourage applications from disabled, Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) and candidates from our local communities.

If you share our values and vision and are passionate about working with people on what matters to them, you could be a real asset to Team North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust.

Please refer to the attached Job Description for further information regarding main responsibilities.
