Clinical Fellow (Adult Eating Disorders)
Grade:
MT03
Salary:
£ 43923.00 per annum plus London Zone Allowance
Applications are invited from suitably qualified candidates to work as Clinical Fellows in our Adult Eating Disorders Ward.
This is for a full-time (40 hours per week) post, at South West London and St George's Mental Health Trust, based at Springfield University Hospital, Tooting, London.
This post is being offered at the equivalent of Core Trainee level, and the appointment would be at a grade based on the qualifications and experience of the applicant.
The post will be initially for 6 months, with the possibility of extension for a further 6 months by mutual agreement and subject to availability and funding.
Main duties of the job
The successful applicant will work in Springfield Hospital as part of an MDT in a modern in-patient Eating Disorders Unit, Avalon Ward. The clinical supervisor will be the ward consultants, and the ward also has trainee doctors.

The post will also suit doctors seeking to enhance their portfolio for entry into training grades and those already in non-training Grade positions (e.g., SAS doctors or Trust Fellows) who are seeking a formal educational structure.
Training, educational opportunities, and appraisal will be available to successful candidates, including attendance at the weekly academic programme.
Out of hours on-call is not compulsory, but there may be an opportunity to participate in the on-call rota if desired and subject to availability. Participation in the Daytime Duty Doctor cover is expected.
If you are an energetic and motivated doctor who would like to join our service, we would like to hear from you. We look forward to receiving your application.
