Locum Consultant in Trauma

2 weeks ago


Norwich, United Kingdom Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Applications are invited for a locum consultant in Trauma and Orthopaedic surgery who is fellowship trained in hip and revision hip surgery. The post arises to cover the substantial workload in trauma, and also Maternity cover for a fixed period until the end of May 2025.

A candidate who is unable for personal reasons to undertake the duties of a whole-time post will receive equal consideration. If such a candidate is appointed the job content will be modified as appropriate in consultation with consultant colleagues and local management.

We welcome all applications irrespective of age, disability, gender, sexual orientation, race or religion. Additionally, people with disabilities will be offered an interview providing they meet the minimum criteria for the post. The Trust operates job share and flexible working.

Main duties of the job

The appointee will be expected to carry out the whole spectrum of surgery within their hip surgery, but their primary role would be with helping to deal with the waiting list backlog, in terms of outpatients, day cases and inpatients, as well as the full spectrum of trauma that is admitted to NNUH.

The NNUH is one of the busiest acute hospitals in the country. Two dedicated trauma theatres run 5 days a week, with one trauma theatre at weekends. The successful candidate will be expected to join the on-call rota at an intensity of 1 in 18. The on call is run on a 6-weekly system with consultants in 3s who drop all elective commitments for that week to concentrate on trauma.

The successful candidate will need to be competent in primary management of all areas of acute trauma, although support in specialist areas such as paediatrics & spines is provided and referral of complex cases to colleagues with specialist interests is common. The new consultant should expect to receive referrals for complex problems related to their sunspecialty interest. These cases will be accommodated in their elective / additional trauma lists.

All consultants in T& O at NNUH share office space, junior doctor & secretarial support & the successful candidate will be expected to do so on an equitable basis.
