BOA National Future Leaders Fellowship - Foot & Ankle

This Trust can facilitate a BOA Future Leaders Fellowship, a scheme designed for trainees who have ideally passed their FRCS (T&O) examination or finished at least 4 years of Registrar training and wish to gain specialist surgical experience in foot and ankle surgery prior to applying for a Consultant post. All Fellows must be members of the BOA. If successful, individuals must apply direct to the BOA for a place on the Future Leaders scheme.

The successful candidate will work with the Consultant Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Surgeons, concentrating upon foot and ankle surgery, including ankle joint replacements, arthroscopic ankle surgery and complex foot and ankle trauma surgery. They will have a weekly planned fellow operating list for treating patients who have been referred by the general trauma team but require the expertise of the foot and ankle team.

North Tees & Hartlepool NHS Foundation Trust our main priority is, and always will be, to provide safe and high quality care to our patients every day; the kind of care we would want for ourselves and our loved ones. We want our organisation to be the best place to work with the right staff, in the right roles, at the right time, to ensure we deliver exceptional patient care and experience.

We will support staff through providing an inclusive and supportive workplace with health and well-being initiatives, staff benefits and opportunities for personal and professional development. Staff recognition is very important to us; as well as performance reviews and appraisals, we recognise staff through Star and Team of the month, colleague recognition – a note of thanks, Managers Awards, Shining Stars and Service Awards.

We recruit for values and “Together we are North Tees & Hartlepool”

There is the opportunity for the post holder to take part in an out of hour’s trauma on call.

The Trust has strong links with Teesside University and has a track record of supporting trainees through various clinical courses provided by the University.

Although the successful candidate will be based at University Hospital of North Tees, there will be a requirement to work cross site at the University Hospital of Hartlepool. It is a fixed term contract for 12 months.

It is essential that the applicant has a good understanding of clinical risk management and experience of upper limb surgery. In addition to the challenges of the role, we expect commitment to clinical research, teaching and audit.

It is important that the applicant is a team player and adaptable to respond to changing circumstances and be willing to engage in NHS strategies.
