Consultant in Trauma

1 month ago


Huddersfield, United Kingdom Calderdale and Huddersfield NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Job summary

The Department of Trauma & Orthopaedics seeks to appoint two Consultants in Trauma & Orthopaedics to the upper limb unit with a special interest in hand and wrist surgery. This will increase the department to a complement of eighteen whole time equivalent surgeons and two less than full time (20 Consultants total). One of the posts is to replace a current locum post and the other is a replacement for a retirement later this year. These posts are to focus mainly on the management of hand and wrist conditions, but if candidates have experience and interest in elbow conditions this would also be welcomed. Both posts are full time posts and are based on a 10 PA contract. Fellowship training in hand and wrist surgery is required. The posts include general trauma on call on a 1 in 16 rota and you would be expected to manage upper limb trauma with the other consultants in the upper limb unit. Specialist hand trauma is managed at our neighbouring trust, Bradford, in the Plastics unit and not at CHFT.

Boardslisten to their Council of Governors and respond to the needs of their members - patients, staff andthe local community.

Foundation trusts provide what the health service wants, yet are also free to invest quickly in thechanges to the local community needs, in striving to be the best, and in putting their patients first.
