Cardiff CF XW, United Kingdom Cardiff and Vale University Health Board Full time

Applications are invited for the post of Consultant Vascular Surgeon based at the University Hospital of Wales (UHW) in Cardiff as part of the South East Wales Vascular Network.

Following vascular centralisation, arterial surgery is only performed on the UHW (Major Arterial Centre) site. The appointee will be expected to provide services to one of the spoke sites in three Health Board areas covered by the Network. There is also a commitment to the 1 in 9 out-of-hours network rota.

Cardiff and Vale University Health Board is recognised as a teaching centre of excellence in a wide range of clinical services.

Although this post is full-time, consideration will be given to applicants who require flexible working arrangements.

Applicants should either be on the Specialist Register or be a Specialist Registrar within six months of their expected date of receipt of a CCT at the time of interview.

You will be able to take advantage of the excellent Consultant contract for Wales. The basic salary range for this post is £110,240 per annum to £160,951 per annum.

Applicants must ensure they provide names and contact details of referees covering at least the last 3 years of their employment/training history in full. In addition, applicants who are currently or have most recently been employed as a substantive Consultant or as a Locum Consultant in post for more than 12 months must also provide the name of their Medical Director as an additional referee.

The job plan includes two theatre sessions per week in the vascular theatre, two outpatient clinics, and a day case list. Participation in endovascular procedures is encouraged and dedicated lists will be allocated when the hybrid theatre is operational. The new incumbent will be expected to participate in the existing vascular programmes.

Cardiff is the site of the Children's Hospital for Wales which is adjacent to UHW. It is expected that the successful candidate will be prepared to be involved in the management of paediatric vascular trauma cases as and when they arise. We appreciate that paediatric experience may be limited for some candidates therefore senior mentorship will be available for all cases.

Academic interests will be encouraged; research and teaching in collaboration with Cardiff University's School of Medicine will be expected.
