- £52,530 – £82,400
- South West
- Fixed
This role is an outstanding opportunity for someone who has got years of experience overseas and is looking for their first role in the NHS. The department has had great success in getting its Clinical Fellows on to Specialty training (the route to CCT) and supporting in CESR Applications- brilliant for an IMG! You’d be coming in as an ST3+ so the role doesn’t come with all of the same responsibilities as a Consultant, giving you an opportunity to get used to the system and settle in. The Hospital is in a beautiful city that is close to London and Bristol- great for someone who wants to live inner-city or settle in the countryside.
Key details
- Contract: Fixed Term
- Location: South-West
