NHS Medical & Dental: Specialty Trainee (ST6-8)

Job overview

Applications are invited for the post of Clinical Fellow Higher (ST6+) in Paediatric Retrieval (PaNDR) at Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.

This post is available to commence as soon as possible for a period of 12 months.

This post has previously been occupied by a number of overseas Trainees who have found it beneficial to have exposure in Acute Paediatric Retrieval in a Tertiary Unit.

This post will also be appealing to senior Trainees including post CCT holders who are wishing to gain further Acute Paediatric or Paediatric Critical Care experience guided and supported by the national PICS-ATG transport Passport Curriculum. It would be particularly suited to those wishing to gain experience at middle grade level in a centre of excellence before seeking their first Consultant post.

Fellows and Trainees with at least two years of experience in Anaesthetics, Intensive Care Medicine, or trained in Emergency Medicine are also encouraged to apply.

Main duties of the job

The post holder will participate on the Middle Grade rota which is a full shift pattern and regulated by the European working time directive (EWTD).

Support for study and professional leaves are built in the job plan and participation in research and audit activities is strongly encouraged, although the training opportunities associated with this post will be equal to those for the Specialty Registrars in the department.

In order to be considered, applicants must meet the essential criteria outlined in the person specification.

Please note that this post does not carry Postgraduate Dean’s approval or training recognition, however the applicant may use the experience as an Out of Programme Experience (OOPE).

Full Registration and a Licence to Practice with the General Medical Council at point of commencement is required.

Working for our organisation

The applicant must have demonstrable skills in listening, reading, writing and speaking in English that enable effective communication about medical topics with patients and colleagues, as set out in the GMC’s Good Medical Practice (2013). Non-UK applicants must possess the IELTS/OET exam before obtaining a GMC licence to practice.

Applications from job seekers who require skilled worker sponsorship to work in the UK are welcome and will be considered alongside all other applications. For further information please visit the UK Visas and Immigration website.

It is a requirement for skilled worker applicants, applying for entry clearance into the UK, to present a criminal record certificate from each country they have resided continuously or cumulatively for 12 months or more in the past 10 years. Adult dependants (over 18 years old) will also be subject to this requirement.
