Senior Led in Burns Surgery

4 weeks ago


Manchester, United Kingdom Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust Full time

We are looking to appoint a new fellow into our long-running Senior Fellow position at the Manchester Adult Burns Centre (Wythenshawe Hospital) and the Manchester Paediatric Burns Centre (Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital). The fellowship, which has been running for over ten years, would be suitable for senior trainees who hold the FRCS(Plast) and are looking to develop advanced skills in the management of adult and paediatric major burn injuries, as well as receive mentorship as they finish their training and prepare for a role as a consultant surgeon with an interest in adult and paediatric burn care.

The post holder will play a pivotal role in the day-to-day running of the burns service: acting as the most senior trainee on the unit, running the burns MDTs, coordinating the burns lists, and undertaking ward care and surgical procedures on our patients with burn injuries. These duties will be under the supervision of the burns consultant of the day who will be available for all sessions, and the level of responsibility will be tailored to the post-holders’ abilities and training needs.

The post-holder will have the opportunity to develop their skills in the acute management of severe (ITU/PICU) burns, the initial and late surgical management of burn wounds and late deformities, and in scar management. It is expected the post-holder will gain competencies in engaging with the full spectrum of essential/ as required members of the multi-disciplinary team and learn to value their input in clinical decision making, managing burns in patients with challenging medical/surgical/psychological/developmental conditions; managing complex microbiological challenges, competency in having difficult discussions with patients/carers and legal authorities as well as learn when less is best.

MFT is one of the largest NHS Trust In England with a turnover of £2.6bn & is on a different scale than most other NHS Trusts. We’re creating an exceptional integrated health & social care system for the 1 million patients who rely on our services every year.

Bringing together 10 hospitals & community services from across Manchester, Trafford & beyond, we champion collaborative working & transformation, encouraging our 28,000 workforce to pursue their most ambitious goals. We set standards that other Trusts seek to emulate so you’ll benefit from a scale of opportunity that is nothing short of extraordinary.

We’ve also created a digitally enabled organisation to improve clinical quality, patient & staff experience, operational effectiveness & driving research, and innovation through the introduction of Hive; our Electronic Patient Record system which launched in September 2022.

We’re proud to be a major academic Research Centre & Education provider, providing you with a robust infrastructure to encourage and facilitate high-quality research programmes. What’s more, we’re excited to be embarking on our Green Plan which sets out how MFT continues to play its part in making healthcare more sustainable.
