CONSULTANT MEDICAL MICROBIOLOGY or INFECTIOUS DISEASES AND MICROBIOLOGY (10 PAs)

Join a forward\-thinking Trust where your expertise in microbiology will shape the future of infection services.

We are seeking an enthusiastic and visionary Consultant Medical Microbiologist to join our dynamic team.

At BHRUT, you’ll work in a supportive environment that values innovation, continuous learning, and multidisciplinary collaboration. With access to state\-of\-the\-art laboratories, and opportunities to lead service development, this is the perfect role for a consultant who wants to make a real impact. Whether you're looking to make a difference or drive clinical excellence, we offer the platform and support to help you thrive.

Applications are invited for a Consultant Medical Microbiologist (Consultant Microbiologist or joint Consultant Microbiologist/Infectious Diseases) or be eligible for registration on the specialist register (CCT/CESR) within six months of interview at Barking Havering and Redbridge University NHS Trust.

BHRUT is looking to appoint an enthusiastic Consultant Medical Microbiologist to join our team of 5 friendly, highly motivated, clinically orientated Microbiology colleagues in our well\-established multidisciplinary department. This is a new post .

The post attracts 10 programmed activities and the appointee will be expected to participate in the on\-call duties which are currently a one \-in \-five rota (1:6 with this post).

Consultant offices are based on site at Queen’s Hospital but clinical responsibilities mean rotating through both acute sites of Queen’s Hospital and King George Hospital where we have on\-site laboratories and appointees will be expected to take an active interest in these facilities.

Any candidate who is unable to work full\-time for personal reasons will be eligible for consideration for the post. If such a person is appointed, modification of the job content will be discussed on a personal basis with the Trust, in consultation with consultant colleagues.

All interested individuals please contact Dr Rekha Lopez Clinical Lead for Microbiology on 01708435000 via switch or email rekha.lopez3@nhs.net

Please see the attached JD.

We’re an organisation that is getting better and better and our improvements are driven by a determination to deliver care we’re proud of and our patients are happy with.

They are benefitting from a new electronic patient record (we were the last acute trust in London to introduce one) and our maternity services have been rated good by the Care Quality Commission.

We operate from two main sites – KGH in Goodmayes and Queen’s Hospital in Romford. We have two busy emergency departments with more than 346,000 people visiting them last year. We’re campaigning to secure the £35m we need to transform the A\&E at Queen’s and get rid of corridor care.

We’re proud of our regional Neurosciences Centre, Radiotherapy Centre and Hyper Acute Stroke Unit. We’re also part of the North East London Cancer Alliance.

We run a Women’s Health Hub in Ilford; an Ageing Well Centre in Hornchurch; and Community Diagnostic Centres (CDC) at Barking Community Hospital and at St George’s Health and Wellbeing Hub. These CDCs are open 12 hours a day, 7 days a week.

The majority of our 8,400 staff – who come from 146 different countries \- live in the three diverse London boroughs we serve and are from black, Asian and minority ethnic groups. Many can work flexibly and more than 400 of them are on our Ofsted accredited apprenticeship programmes. We’re proud to be a London Living Wage employer.
