10 PAs/week

Applications are welcome from individuals who wish to work LTFT/flexibly.

Joining the dedicated team at St Luke’s Hospice Plymouth could be one of the most life-enhancing moves you ever make. Regarded as a leader among hospices, we are as innovative as we are compassionate.

We pioneered an integrated approach to specialist palliative care that’s since been widely adopted by many other hospices, delivering high-quality seamless care for patients at home, in hospital and in hospice settings. Could you be the Consultant we are seeking to play a lead medical role in our interdisciplinary team and help shape the future of end of life care in the region?

This post will be based at our inpatient unit at Turnchapel in Plymouth, and have input into our Community Palliative Care Team, too. It’s an exciting time to join St Luke’s as we expand and develop our service to help us meet our visions of ‘a community where no person has to die alone, in pain or in distress.’

With our strong links to the Peninsula Medical School, part of the University of Plymouth, you will be involved in training the doctors of tomorrow. There may also be opportunities for you to take a lead role in developing the research potential of St Luke’s.

We recognise and value our staff and volunteers who together make a vital difference to patients and their families when it matters most. Plus, there’s our stunning coastal location in South West Devon, boasting some of the most beautiful countryside in the UK.

Plymouth is a vibrant, modern city, and the area provides a high quality of living and excellent schools and education. It also caters for a wide range of leisure and sporting pursuits.

Applicants should be on the Specialist Register for Palliative Medicine or be within six months of CCT in Palliative Medicine at the time of interview.
