We are a forward-thinking team committed to building a positive working culture where training and professional development is pivotal to our success.  We are passionate about embracing new ideas and modern ways of working in a clinical environment where all views are heard and valued.  All we ask is that you bring lots of fresh ideas, a proactive nature, and a keenness to create change.  So, if you feel excited by the above or would like to explore this opportunity further, please do get in touch. 

Please note this is an opportunity for an anaesthetic practitioner with current HCPC or NMC registration.

 

Main duties of the job

As a key member of the multi-disciplinary theatre team, you will participate in planning, delivering, evaluating and implementing the highest possible level of anaesthetic services, supporting the Anaesthetist to deliver outstanding care to patients and contributing to the overall effectiveness of Theatres at Salisbury Foundation Trust.

The post holder will be expected to develop skills and specialty-based knowledge to support anaesthetic practice in a multi-specialty environment, which may involve procedures performed on both adult and paediatric patients under general, regional and local anaesthetic.

Individual practitioners will be required to participate in a full rostered 24/7 rota, 7 days a week, 365 days a year to support service provision.

We have about 470 beds and employ over 4000 staff.

We support flexible working and will consider requests taking into account the needs of the service.  We think working here is pretty rewarding.  You can access a range of NHS discounts, receive a minimum of 35 days paid holiday (pro rata), and we offer a generous pension scheme.
