The Training Programme Director in General Surgery will support the Head of School in the Strategic Development of the School of Surgery.

The post holder will lead on the development of the School's Recruitment and Retention Strategy and contribute to supporting the School Operational Programme.

The post holder will be a member of the School Board.

The Training Programme Director will focus upon improvement of learner supervision, assessment and experience, engagement of faculty and ensuring effective educational outcomes, both now and in the future. The role is evolving and will also focus on whole workforce transformation and developing multi-professional links.

The Programme Director will ensure that both national standards, determined by the Royal College, and guidelines and standards established within General Surgery are met. Responsibilities will include:

To oversee the Specialty's Regional Training Programme

Specialty-specific matters and trainee/trainer concerns

The ideal candidate will be an experienced NHS Consultant with a thorough understanding of General Surgery training across the region and who will also have strong leadership and communication skills and be able to work effectively as a member of a multi-professional team.

Our work supports the NHS to deliver high quality services for patients and best value for taxpayers.

Our staff bring expertise across hundreds of specialisms — including clinical, operational, commissioning, technology, data science, cyber security, software engineering, education, and commercial — enabling us to design and deliver high-quality NHS services.

We lead the NHS in England by:

Enabling local systems and providers to improve the health of their people and patients and reduce health inequalities

Making the NHS a great place to work, where our people can make a difference and achieve their potential

Working collaboratively to ensure our healthcare workforce has the right knowledge, skills, values and behaviours to deliver accessible, compassionate care

Optimising the use of digital technology, research, and innovation

Delivering value for money

Earlier this year, the Government announced that NHS England will gradually merge with the Department of Health and Social Care, leading to full integration. The aim is to create a smaller, more strategic centre that reduces duplication and eliminates waste.

If successful at interview, we will initiate an Inter Authority Transfer (IAT) via the Electronic Staff Record (ESR). This retrieves key data from your current or previous NHS employer to support onboarding, including competency status, Continuous Service Dates (CSD), and annual leave entitlement. You may opt out at any stage of the recruitment process.

As a result of NHS England's (NHSE) integration into the Department of Health, all educator recruitment activity either extensions to existing contracts or new appointments, will now be until 31 March 2027. We are currently reviewing the recruitment process beyond this date and will provide updates as soon as the new procedures
