The post provides general paediatric cover on the Tier 2 rota (equivalent to ST3 and above) working on the paediatric inpatient wards, in outpatients and supporting our paediatric emergency department. Supervision and support will be provided at all times by the consultant team. This post would ideally suit an existing RCPCH trainee looking for an Out Of Programme Experience (OOPE) or a Post CCT Fellow seeking a supported step up to Consultant or those with significant Paediatric experience seeking to obtain portfolio progression. We have a particular strategic need for those with interests in epilepsy, adolescent care, eating disorders, renal and paediatric emergency medicine. This should not preclude motivated and keen candidates from applying and we are also interested to hear from those with other interests as well as developing other areas of service in management, quality improvement.

Previous fellows have primarily focussed on medical education and simulation, we welcome interest from those seeking developing skills in quality improvement, management, involvement in project work including IT system roll out or development of service improvement such as adolescent and transition services. or time for further postgraduate qualifications. We also offer a broad spectrum of Paediatric specialties which would allow a clinical outpatient focus and actively support trainees towards Royal College of Paediatric and Child Health (RCPCH) Specialist Interest (SPIN) modules.
