Job description

Senior Clinical Fellow in Vascular Surgery

Join to apply for the Senior Clinical Fellow in Vascular Surgery role at Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust

The Post Holder will join a networked vascular service across hub and spoke sites (Wigan, Morecambe Bay or Blackpool). The network has twelve Vascular Consultants, with a team of nine Middle Grades working across four trusts. The Middle Grade vascualr rota includes a “Vascular Surgeon of the Week” and a separate vascular on‑call and weekend rota. During the “Vascular Surgeon of the Week”, elective duties are cancelled.

LTHTR values its Senior Clinical Fellows and, in a first of its kind in the UK, has agreed to provide all Senior Clinical Fellows joining the Trust and those already working with us a personal career progression pathway with support to become autonomous practitioners if they aspire to do so.

The Vascular Centre was established in 2015 and serves the populations of Wigan, Blackpool and Morecambe Bay, a population of approximately 1.5 million.

Modern education centres are based at the Royal Preston and Chorley and South Ribble Hospital sites and offer library and study facilities, including PC/internet support for hospital doctors and GPs as well as other medical and dental practitioners. The Trust supports Continuing Medical Education as laid down by the Royal College of Surgeons and provides time and support for these activities. The post holder will receive the full support of the Trust and the Directorate to develop specialist areas of interest in line with Directorate business plans and the development of services within the Trust.

There are two new dedicated vascular operating theatres, including a hybrid operating theatre with built‑in video facilities for teaching purposes and video-linkage to the Education Centre. The contract may be supplemented or amended by local collective agreements reached with trade unions recognised by the Trust and the rules and resolutions of the Trust Board.
