7 days ago


Cardiff, United Kingdom Cardiff and Vale University Health Board Full time

Applications are invited for the full-time post of Locum Consultant Hepatologist which forms part of the reconfiguration of Gastroenterology & Hepatology services within Cardiff and Vale University Health Board.

The successful candidate will join 16 other Consultants in Gastroenterology / Hepatology in Cardiff. The post is based at University Hospital of Wales (UHW) but may also have some duties at University Hospital Llandough. The two hospital sites are located approximately six miles apart although Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Endoscopy across both sites are managed in a single directorate within the Clinical Board of Medicine.

You will be able to take advantage of the excellent Consultant contract for Wales. The basic salary for this post is £105,401 per annum.

Applicants must ensure they provide names and contact details of referees covering at least the last 3 years of their employment/training history in full. In addition, applicants who are currently or have most recently been employed as a substantive Consultant or as a Locum Consultant in post for more than 12 months must also provide the name of their Medical Director as an additional referee.

Main duties of the job

The appointee will join 4.5 other Hepatology Consultants, supported by specialist nurses and specialty registrars as well as colleagues in interventional radiology and HPB surgery. This new post will not contribute to the acute general medical intake but will provide out-of-hours emergency endoscopy and weekend cover for Gastroenterology and Hepatology patients as part of a rota with colleagues, and will also participate in a rota for in-patient care during weekdays.

Cardiff and Vale University Health Board is recognised as a teaching centre of excellence in a wide range of clinical services.

Although this post is full-time, consideration will be given to applicants who require flexible working arrangements.

Applicants should preferably either be on the Specialist Register or be a Specialist Registrar within three months of their expected date of receipt of a CCT / CESR(CP) at the time of interview.
