Full Job Description
This is primarily a clinical role, to be carried out across various Guy's and St Thomas' hospital sites, as well as our High Volume Low Complexity Hub at Queen Mary's Hospital, Sidcup.
The role is a full-time, 10 PA per week position, with 9 PAs designated for direct clinical care (DCC) and 1 PA for supporting professional activities (SPA).
The 9 PAs of clinical duties per week include elective theatre work and preoperative assessment clinics. Clinical work will take place over five days (Monday to Friday), with 1 in 10 weeks involving weekend work.
This is an outline program and you will be expected to discuss and agree upon a detailed job plan, including your personal and professional objectives, with the Clinical Leads and Director before starting the post.
The post holder must be medically qualified, maintain GMC specialist registration and hold a licence to practice.
We are keen to attract a motivated, hard-working colleague who shares our vision of a cohesive department focused on excellent patient care and outstanding multidisciplinary team collaboration.
The Theatre, Anaesthesia, and Peri-operative Medicine (TAP) directorate has increased its team of Consultant Anaesthetists by a third in the last three years, reflecting the continued rise in clinical activity. It now has over 100 consultants in adult anaesthesia, each with varied interests and specialist areas, working in the dynamic environments of Guy's and St Thomas' Foundation Trust and Queen Mary's Hospital in Sidcup.
TAP is one of the most exciting departments to work in across the country. The department includes a Professor in Anaesthesia, editors from Anaesthesia, members of the Association of Anaesthetists Council, the current President of the Royal College of Anaesthetists Council, and the current DAS President, among others. It is recognised as one of the most productive and engaging clinical, academic, and educational departments in the UK, with an energetic, forward-thinking approach to welcoming new colleagues.
