The exact days on the rota can beflexible and negotiable . Will come with associated banding pay and 40% (fixed days) will be dedicated to education delivery at that site.

The Education Academy within Barts Health is expanding in response to need with increasing numbers of students and trainees. There is a real need to ensure that students receive excellent tuition and that trainees have the best possible educational supervision. Emergency Medicine (EM) lends itself to simulation training with many patients managed by large teams with complex medical problems. The Professor in Emergency Medicine has a recognised interest in focused ultrasound, resuscitation, procedural sedation and advanced airway care.

The successful candidate will be integral in the role out of simulation based training in these areas. In line with our Education Strategy, we intend to improve education by building a Trainee Teaching Faculty made up of Specialty Teaching Fellows who contribute to both undergraduate and postgraduate training and drive forward our distributive simulation strategy.

Barts Health is one of the largest NHS trusts in the country, and one of Britain’s leading healthcare providers.

The Barts Health group of NHS hospitals is entering an exciting new era on our improvement journey to becoming an outstanding organisation with a world-class clinical reputation. Having lifted ourselves out of special measures, we now have the impetus and breathing space to chart a fresh course in which we are continually striving to improve all our services for patients.

Our vision is to be a high-performing group of NHS hospitals, renowned for excellence and innovation, and providing safe and compassionate care to our patients in east London and beyond. That means being a provider of excellent patient safety, known for delivering consistently high standards of harm-free care and always caring for patients in the right place at the right time. It also means being an outstanding place to work, in which our WeCare values and behaviours are visible to all and guide us in how we work together.

We strive to live by our WeCare values and are committed to promoting inclusion, where every staff member has a sense of belonging. We value our differences and fully advocate, cultivate and support an inclusive working environment where staff treat one another with dignity and respect. We aim to create an equitable working environment where every individual can fulfil their potential.
