Locum Consultant Anaesthetist with an interest in Neuro Anaesthesia

Applications are invited for Locum Neuro Anaesthesia Consultant post 10PAs and the post holders will join the Neuro on-call rota. Upon appointment the post holder will be paired with a mentor for the first year. Furthermore, our set-up has much valuable support on-site as every day of the week, there is a senior Anaesthetic Consultant, acting as the Duty Floor Anaesthetist (DFA) for the overall smooth running of the operating theatres and providing urgent help and/or matching skills/experience of allocated anaesthetists with operating lists. The post holder will join the Group of Neuro anaesthetists which consists of approximately 16 Consultants including Neuro Intensivists. This is a friendly, approachable, dynamic and diverse group, who are enthusiastic in both teaching colleagues and learning new skills from colleagues. There is emphasis in wellbeing and supporting each other. The case mix at St George's tends to be complex and challenging. Given the huge expertise in the department, it is easy to seek advice / discuss with an expert in a certain field or acquire new skills.

The post is for full time posts of 10 PAs, with 9 PAs for direct clinical care (DCC) and 1 for SPA in support of personal CPD, preparation for GMC appraisal, additional responsibilities of the post holder and revalidation with an opportunity to increase as interests develop.
