Trauma & Orthopaedics at CUH has expanded; as well as being one of the country's largest Major Trauma Centres with daily complex, high energy and frailty trauma being looked after by renowned surgical teams; it is also expanding its elective orthopaedic capacity. The new Cambridge Movement Surgical Hub is the physical embodiment of the growing role within the region.

Main duties of the job

The successful applicant would join a large team in one of the busiest Major Trauma Centres in the UK and would be expected to have the skills for treating the multiply-injured patient, open fractures and complex lower limb trauma alongside a multi-specialty trauma team. In addition, the applicant should have a particular interest in limb reconstruction techniques with an emphasis on frame based surgery and therefore contributing to bone infection and the trauma service, with experience at post-CCT Fellowship (or equivalent) level.

You will be fully registered with the GMC and have a CCT and appropriate higher subspecialist training, or be within six months of completion of Fellowship or equivalent at the time of interview. Applications are welcomed from those unable to work full time for personal reasons or those wishing to job-share.
