A Vacancy at University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust.
University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust is delighted to offer a fantastic opportunity to work with us.
Please see below for detailed job description of the role.
We are looking for an enthusiastic hard working clinical fellow to join the Respiratory Department at UHS.
You will join the department with 24 Consultants. We provide care for not only the Southampton population but tertiary care for part of the south coast. We run multiple speciality clinics including lung cancer, severe asthma, pleural disease, ILD, TB, NIV, COPD, bronchiectasis (including PCD and CF). We have regular bronchoscopy as well as endobronchial ultrasound lists and recently set up an IPC service. We look after around 80-100 inpatients spread across 4 inpatient teams as well as a 9 bed High Dependency Unit looking after patients with respiratory failure.
This post is to help provide comprehensive care for inpatient respiratory and general medicine at the level of a Specialist Registrar (post MRCP, ST3 or higher). This involves inpatient ward rounds, outpatient clinics including some subspecialist clinics, attending bronchoscopy lists as well as COPD/ILD/Cancer MDT meetings. You will be expected to see respiratory referrals on other medical/surgical wards. You will be expected to be competent in medical procedures including diagnostic and therapeutic pleural aspirations as well as insertion of Seldinger intercostal chest drains. Level 1 pleural US is a desirable but not essential.
As one of the largest acute teaching Trusts in England, we offer learning and development opportunities to help you achieve the career you aspire to. UHS is rated ‘Good’ by the CQC and in the latest national NHS Staff Survey, we were in the top 10 acute trusts for staff engagement and for staff recommending the hospital as a place to work or receive care.
We support flexible working and will consider requests taking into account the needs of the service. UHS employees are able to access a range of NHS discounts, are entitled to a minimum of 35 days paid holiday (pro rata), and we offer a generous pension scheme.
Southampton is an attractive place to live and work situated on the south coast, with an international airport and direct trains to London. The New Forest National Park and beaches of the Jurassic coast are also right on our doorstep. The city offers living costs 20% lower than London and 14 schools rated outstanding by Ofsted.
We believe that using technology wisely shows strong time management and commitment to innovation. However, personalising your recruitment application to highlight your unique skills and experiences is crucial. Relying too heavily on generic, AI-generated content instead of drawing from your own strengths and accomplishments may lead to your application being rejected if multiple candidates present identical or similar information.
Your Responsibilities:
• Inpatient ward rounds of respiratory and general medical patients
• Speciality outpatient clinics
• Practical Procedures (bronchoscopy, diagnostic and therapeutic aspirations as well as Seldinger chest drains)
What we’re looking for:
• Hard working, enthusiastic, engaged clinical fellow with a keen interest in Respiratory Medicine
• Fully competent to perform all pleural procedures – diagnostic and therapeutic pleural aspirations and Seldinger chest drains (Level 1 pleural ultrasound accreditation desirable but not essential)
For an overview of the position, please refer to the attached Job Description and Person Specification document. This includes a detailed breakdown of the key responsibilities, role expectations, and the qualifications we are looking for. It outlines the essential criteria for the role and is designed to support you in preparing your application by helping you evaluate how your skills, experience, and professional background align with the requirements of the role.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Appointment will be made under local contractual terms and conditions of service for Trust appointed (non-training fellow doctors and dentists). Applicants requiring Skilled Worker sponsorship should ensure they meet the Home Office application criteria prior to submitting an application.
Successful candidates will have an educational framework equivalent to training grade doctors, and there will be a named educational supervisor assigned at the start of the post. The opportunity for Continued Professional Development (CPD) is highly supported and encouraged by the Trust, with options available to take study leave.
Grades for Trust appointed (non-training) fellows will be paid a basic salary at a nodal pay point linked to the grade, at the rate set out in the National Medical and Dental pay circular. Basic salary plus any additional remuneration (as applicable) for hours set out in the doctors work schedule (e.g. additional hours, weekend allowance, and any hours which attract enhanced pay)
Salary will be assessed based on experience and skills. Eligibility criteria for appointment to a Nodal Point 5;
• Have a minimum of 6 years of Specialty training
• Hold relevant higher specialty exam (e.g FRCP, FRCA, FRCS)
• A portfolio of evidence that demonstrates they meet the criteria for progression (in line with the Curriculum for the speciality similar to deanery trainee)
