1 x Permanent and 2 x fixed term post available ( 6 months)
Applications are invited for a Junior Clinical Fellow in Neurosurgery at ST2\+ equivalent level. This is an excellent opportunity for a motivated doctor with an interest in neurosurgery to gain valuable experience within a busy regional neuroscience service, supporting the delivery of high\-quality care to elective and emergency neurosurgical patients.
The post will provide exposure to a broad range of cranial and spinal neurosurgical conditions, with opportunities to attend theatre, clinics, teaching sessions, clinical governance meetings and quality improvement activity.
The successful candidate will work as part of a supportive multidisciplinary team, contributing to ward\-based care, assessment of acute admissions, peri\-operative patient management and the on\-call rota.
Applicants should hold full GMC registration with a licence to practice and have appropriate clinical experience at foundation level or above. Previous NHS experience is essential and an interest in pursuing a career in neurosurgery or a related specialty would be desirable.
We are looking for an enthusiastic, reliable and compassionate doctor with excellent communication skills and a commitment to safe, patient\-centered care. Applicants will undertake a full rota including on calls, please see below for example rota.
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.
