Junior Trust Grade in Neuroscience

We are looking for highly motivated junior doctors to work in the expanding Neurosciences Department. The post would be ideal for those who are considering a career in neurosurgery, orthopaedics or related disciplines to commence on the 5th August 2026. The post holders will be responsible for delivering care to neurosurgical patients and will be expected to participate fully in the departmental neuroscience training programs. The Trust grade doctors will have the same educational and training opportunities as training grade doctors, including theatre, clinic and teaching opportunities, however, at present these post are not recognised for training purposes by Health Education North West.

We would encourage and aid the successful candidates to apply for run through training schemes/National training posts and facilitate this through audit, publication and presentations, whilst developing specific neurosurgical skills through hands on training opportunities. At least one audit and presentation at a national meeting would be expected. We have recognised recent success of such posts in national neurosurgical selection.
