Working for Our Organisation

The Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust is the main provider of acute hospital services for around half a million people in Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin, and mid Wales. Our catchment area stretches from the Cambrian Mountains in the west to Newport and the fringes of the Black Country in the east. We have two main service locations: the Princess Royal Hospital in Telford and the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital in Shrewsbury, which are located 20 minutes' drive apart. Both hospitals provide a wide range of acute hospital services, including accident & emergency, outpatients, diagnostics, inpatient medical care, and critical care.

Detailed Job Description and Main Responsibilities

A formal job plan will be agreed between the successful candidate and their Clinical Director and consultant colleagues, on behalf of the Medical Director, within 3 months of starting in post. The job plan will be reviewed annually and will provide a clear schedule of commitments, both internal and external, including personal objectives that detail links to wider service improvements and Trust strategic priorities.

The job plan will be divided into three main areas: Programmed Activities (PAs), Supporting Professional Activities (SPAs), and out-of-hours activity. The allocation of PAs is reviewed and may be subject to adjustment when a further diary exercise is undertaken or if the service demands a review of the team job plan.

Any applicant who is unable, for personal reasons, to work full-time will be eligible to be considered for the post. If such a person is appointed, modification of the job content will be discussed on a personal basis with the Trust in consultation with other consultant colleagues.
