Summary
A Vacancy at University Hospitals of Derby and Burton NHS Foundation Trust.
Not sure what to do in August 2025?
Keen to gain more experience in Medicine with a friendly team that is interested in your development as a doctor before deciding on your next career move?
UHBD are looking for motivated, enthusiastic doctors to join their Trust. A busy, progressive, forward thinking Trust, we have been successfully recruiting to these posts for 8 years and would like you to join our consultants and teams working in Specialist or Acute Medicine.
We typically receive several hundred applications for locally employed doctor posts and we will therefore only shortlist candidates who meet the Essential criteria. Please do not apply if you do not meet this criteria as this leads to significant clinician time reviewing applications from applicants who will not be shortlisted.
In conjunction with the wider medical team, your main duty will be day to day management of medical in-patients.
We would also like to offer you opportunities to increase your out-patient experience, build upon the skills you already have, learn new procedures and work in our friendly departments. There are opportunities to teach, perform Quality Improvement Projects and be part of our innovative teams.
You will receive educational and clinical supervision, £500 study leave budget (pro rata) and 5 days study leave (pro rata), the option to access an Eportfolio and be encouraged to join regular teaching programmes. Subject to individual requirements, there may be scope to attend ALS or IMPACT courses and we will facilitate your annual appraisal.
As a trusted organisation at the heart of our communities, we recognise the important role we can play in supporting the public, patients, our own people and local partners in achieving the best of health for the local population and the communities in which they live by providing Exceptional Care Together
Our fundamental Values of Compassion, Openness and Excellence underpin how we intend to work as a Trust and the associated behaviours are becoming embedded in all aspects of how we work.
In return we will offer:
• Development opportunities, including both professional and leadership development
• On-going support through every step of the way from recruitment to when you join our team and beyond.
• A variety of other staff benefits including employee assistance programme, discounted gym membership, onsite fitness classes, car schemes
Key Facts about our Trust:
• We see on average 4810 OP appointments per day.
• We are the 4th busiest Trauma & Orthopaedic outpatients department in England – an average of 2077 per week.
• An average of 1115 patients are seen in A&Es across our network every day – 3rd largest in the country.
• Our hospitals admit an average of 195 emergency patients daily.
• Last year we undertook almost 33,700 planned surgical operations in our 57 operating theatres.
• We are one of only 7 Trusts nationally with more than 50 operating theatres.
• We carry out more than 140 elective procedures each working day.
The post holder will be allocated to either:
· Acute Medicine for the duration of the contract (Junior Clinical Fellow in Acute Medicine)
or;
· General Medicine F3 for the duration of the contract
or;
· A rotational F3 contract with 2 rotations within general medicine plus a speciality rotation in one of the following specialties: Respiratory, Gastroenterology, Diabetes and Endocrinology, Cardiology, Renal , High dependency care , Neurology, Medicine for the Elderly and Stroke Medicine. Applicants can give preferences for the specialist rotation. We will do our best to accommodate preferences but as this will be based on service needs, we cannot guarantee applications will get their first choice.
General and Specialist Medicine working arrangements will include a long day and 1 in 4 weekend cover with compensatory rest periods. These positions do not include night working.
Acute Medicine working arrangements include an out of hours working rota including nights, weekend and long day shifts.
These are service posts and therefore candidates may be required to cover another medical/medical speciality ward, as the service requirements dictate.

Full GMC Registration with a licence to practice on application is essential.
Although not formal training posts and these are not accredited by Health Education East Midlands, we believe we can offer you good training in a busy, large hospital that has the benefits of a district general and the reputation of a teaching hospital.
