Margate, United Kingdom East Kent Hospitals University NHS Foundation Trust Full time

This is an exciting opportunity to joinour team of Paediatric Consultants in the Child Health Care Group. We are looking to recruit a Locum Paediatrician at our QEQM Hospital (Margate) on a one-year fixed term contract.

A strong commitment from the appointee to the Child Health Directorate and involvement with activities such as audit, appraisal and assessment, learning and development and clinical governance is also an expectation.

Whilst QEQM offers a new and exciting platform geared towards the future, the Garden of England offers similar opportunities for an enjoyable life, within a diverse and vibrant community with beautiful housing, brilliant coastal and rural spaces, as well as a rich cultural and social life. Thanet offers great schools, excellent transport links to London. Kent is a gateway to the continent, just a short distance across the English Channel. This vibrant corner of England offers art, history, fine dining, outdoor pursuits or even a spot of shopping, Thanet, and East Kent have everything that you need to live a rewarding and fulfilling lifestyle.

The post holder will have general paediatric responsibilities including cover of the Level 1 special care baby unit (SCBU). Duties include participating in the acute on-call, emergency pathway support shifts (2 PM to 9 PM on site), consultant of the week responsibilities for the general ward, consultant of the week for the Neonatal pathway and general outpatient activities. This will achieve our strategic aim of improving support to the neonatal pathway (SCBU/labour ward/postnatal ward), as well as the acute care and emergency pathway. In the future, there may be an opportunity to develop a specialist interest based on current existing subspecialties and expected service needs, particularly with increased expansion and substantive appointments.
