Do you want to be part of a team where your voice really matters, and everyone is equal?
Whether you are seeking your first post after completing training or you are an established consultant seeking a new challenge, we have your perfect role.

Successful applicants will work as part of a group of over 30 ED Consultants on a 24-week whole time equivalent rota to provide senior medical staff on site presence 08:00-00:00 with weekend working one in eight weekends.
The team works equally across 2 sites, with Pinderfields Hospital being our Major Emergency Department and designated Major Trauma Unit. Both Dewsbury and Pinderfields have 24/7 separate dedicated children's EDs.
Please be aware that the Mid Yorkshire Emergency Departments plan to introduce on site night shift working. There is ongoing recruitment to expand consultant numbers to facilitate this. For new consultant starters there is an expectation that they will be part of a future night shift workforce.
