Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust is a community focused provider of local and acute care, providing high quality services to over one million people living across the London boroughs of Lewisham, Greenwich and Bexley. With a turnover of around £700 million, we provide services at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Woolwich, University Hospital Lewisham and a range of community settings in Lewisham. We also provide some services at Queen Mary’s Hospital in Sidcup.

As an organisation, we’ve made significant improvements for patients and staff in the last two and-a-half years. This is reflected in our most recent Care Quality Commission (CQC) inspection (from February 2020), which found improvements across the organisation and gave us an improved rating of “Good” in the Well-Led and Effective domains, in addition to the rating of “Good” that we had already achieved in the Caring domain. Our staff culture change programme has been key to the Trust’s improvement journey, as we’ve stabilised our workforce by reducing vacancy rates and improving staff retention. We’ve also significantly increased the representation of minority ethnic leaders across our clinical and corporate teams.

The Department has a commitment to the career progression of Career Grade Doctors and skills required for specialist aspects of the post which will be developed within the post, particularly working towards passing the MRCS examination if not already held.

The post would suit a surgeon who has worked at foundation or core surgical training grade for at least 2 years who wishes to continue to maintain and gain experience in a variety of general surgical specialties. The successful applicant will provide a clinical service at FY2-ST1 level, working closely with the Senior Clinical Fellows/Deanery trainees, Clinical Fellows/CT’s and Foundation doctors under the supervision of the Consultants.

The successful applicant will participate in the general surgery 1:8 resident on-call rota which forms part of a dedicated emergency surgery team led by a dedicated emergency consultant. We have had excellent feedback regarding the training opportunities in emergency surgery that this rota provides.

Applicants must have full registration with the GMC, and a minimum of 2 years’ experience working in General Surgery foundation or core training equivalent positions.

This is an exciting time to join the surgical department as we develop a wider clinical community and focus on expanding our surgery services. The future for clinical services will provide the ideal opportunity for innovation and developing new approaches to patient care across a wide catchment population. Being part of a wider clinical community will also provide greater opportunity for professional development.
