About the role

Mid Yorkshire Teaching NHS Trust is pleased to offer a Clinical Fellowship in Paediatrics aimed at doctors working at ST6ST7 level (or equivalent) who wish to further develop their clinical and professional skills outside of a formal training programme.

This 12-month post combines hands-on clinical experience with opportunities for personal and professional development, including exposure to subspecialty areas, education, leadership and quality improvement initiatives.

The role will be based primarily at Pinderfields Hospital (Wakefield) and Dewsbury Hospital, although all medical staff contribute to care across the Trusts sites. Less than full time applications will be considered.

The post holder will work at a senior registrar level, contributing to the delivery of acute paediatric and neonatal services across the Trust, including inpatient wards, assessment units and neonatal services.
