About the role

We are looking to appoint a Consultant Cardiologist to further develop our highly rated Cardiology services at Chesterfield Royal Hospital. This is an exciting opportunity for someone looking to make a difference by supporting the development of cardiology pathways and services, including collaboration with local tertiary referral centres. A specialist interest such as coronary intervention, device implementation, or heart failure management would be welcomed, however, we are happy to discuss alternatives with the right candidate, and it is anticipated that there will be occasion for the appointee to develop a sub-specialty interest within the role.

For further information please see the attached job description and person specification which gives a comprehensive overview of the main duties required for this role

Our staff enjoy a range of benefits including on-site parking, local discounts, on-site Caf and Amazon lockers. There is a cycle-to-work scheme along with electric vehicle charging points. A hub, dedicated to the health and wellbeing of our staff, includes rooms for mindfulness, gym and shower facilities and different programmes to keep you active.
