Locum Consultant Surgeon in General Day Case Surgery

We're looking for two locum consultant surgeons to join our general and colorectal surgery team and help us give patients safe, kind and efficient day case surgery. One post has a special interest in coloproctology.

The other has a special interest in core general surgery, including hernia repair, gallbladder surgery and lumps and bumps. Your work will help patients get the care they need quickly and go home to recover the same day.

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

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.

You'll work in a friendly, supportive team where our WeCare values guide how we care for patients and treat each other. You'll hold full GMC registration and be on the GMC Specialist Register for General Surgery, or eligible to join it within [6 months] of interview. We welcome applications from surgeons of all backgrounds. Please see the attached job description and person specification for full details.
