Summary

A Vacancy at Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust.

The post is aimed at a Senior Plastic Surgery trainee. These do not carry SAC or college approval for training at present and would therefore suit a post CCT or equivalent individual. (Previous fellows have been able to have part of the fellowship counted as Out of Program Training, after necessary SAC /deanery approval). The post will be based at the Department of Burns & Plastic Surgery, at the City Hospital and Queens Medical Centre. The advertised post is for 12 months starting February 2027 (or earlier).

The micro fellow timetable is quite flexible to accommodate the fellow needs but also the departmental needs. The post holder will be allocated to assist and will gain training in microsurgical reconstruction 2-3 days of the week. One day will be given to other duties within the department including trauma or covering absence of colleagues if necessary. As a senior trainee it will be expected that help will be given to junior trainees in oncological reconstructions as well as coordinating trauma and other cases. One day each week (or 2 half days) could be made available for the individual to attend cosmetic surgery lists within the private sector if they wish. This will be outside of the hours for this post. There are 21 Consultants in the Department. The successful candidate will join 6 Specialist Registrars, 3 trust grade posts at registrar level, 8 Core Trainees and 1 Foundation Year doctor.

Every day, our teams at Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust (NUH) make a difference. We save lives, we improve lives and we usher in new life. We are proud to play a central role in supporting the health and wellbeing of people in Nottingham, Nottinghamshire and our surrounding communities.
