Barking, Havering and Redbridge University Hospitals NHS Trust BHRUT would like to invite applications for a whole time Speciality Doctor in Anaesthetics.

This is a whole time post based on 10 Programmed Activities (PA's) per week Specialty Doctor Contract. Post offers 8 PA's dedicated to clinical duties in Anaesthetics, 1 Supporting PA and additional 1 PA's for special interests and personal development.

You will be joining a dynamic and forward thinking team of doctors and the division of Anaesthesia at BHRUT provides anaesthetic, critical care and acute and chronic pain services for the local population.

The job advert will close early if sufficient applications are received.

Main duties of the job

Contribute to the provision of a high quality, responsive anaesthetic service to Barking, Havering and Redbridge University Hospitals NHS Trust that assumes responsibility for the patients within the catchment area in co-operation with colleagues in critical care, surgery and other clinical departments.

Comply with the agreed job plan, which will be reviewed annually.

Participate in an emergency out of hours resident on-call cover for general anaesthetics or obstetric anaesthesia or critical care (if required).

Contribute to postgraduate and continuing education for medical, nursing, technical staff, GP's and other allied professions.

Deputise in the absence of departmental colleagues in cases of annual leave and (where practicable) short-term sickness.

About us We're an organisation that is getting better and better. We were the most improved Trust in England for A&E performance in 2023/24; we're no longer in special measures; and Matthew Trainer, our Chief Executive, has been named the top CEO by the Health Service Journal. Our improvements are driven by a determination to deliver care we're proud of and that our patients are happy with.

Many of our 8,000 staff - who come from 146 different countries - live in the three diverse London boroughs we serve and the majority are from black, Asian and minority ethnic groups. More than 400 of them are on apprenticeship programmes and we're proud to be a London Living Wage employer.

We operate from two main sites - King George Hospital (KGH) in Goodmayes and Queen's Hospital in Romford. We have two of the busiest emergency departments in London - more than 300,000 people visited our A&Es in 2023.

Patients across northeast London are benefitting from two new state of the art theatres at KGH and our Community Diagnostic Centres at Barking Community Hospital and St George's Health and Wellbeing Hub will significantly increase the number of scans that can be carried out.

We're looking forward to introducing an electronic patient record next year. This will mean the records of any patient visiting one of the seven hospitals run by BHRUT and Barts Health will be accessible to the clinical teams. It'll make things easier for staff and will be better for patients.

Job responsibilities

Contribute (in co-operation with the Audit Committee) on a regular basis to the clinical audit process undertaken within the Trust, and where appropriate at a broader regional level.

Encourage and participate in appropriate research initiatives approved by the local Ethical Committee. Experience in research and audit is advantageous.

Maintain an up to date knowledge of current anaesthetic practice.

Undertake administrative duties associated with the care of patients.

Attend departmental meetings.
