Consultants in Neurology

An exciting opportunity for 5 new substantive posts has arisen within the Neurology Department at Leeds Teaching Hospitals Trust and Calderdale & Huddersfield Foundation Trust. These are West Yorkshire Association of Acute Trust posts and will provide the post holder with experience and exposure of working in a large Tertiary referral centre, as well as gaining specialist knowledge in a District General Hospital. West Yorkshire is moving to a Hub and Spoke model of care delivery so these posts will be an excellent stepping stone into this new way of providing care for patients in the region.

We require 5 Consultant Neurologists who will work with the existing teams to deliver a general neurology service in both Trusts.

Applicants should have established skills in neurology and its related specialties. A strong commitment to undergraduate and postgraduate teaching and a research interest is desirable.

Consideration will be given to applicants who wish to work full or part time and those wishing to job share.

If shortlisted, you will be required to give a 10-minute presentation on:

“Models for delivering high quality equitable neurology care across West Yorkshire”

Dr Jeremy Cosgrove Lead Clinician (LTHT) 0113 3923258

Dr Sunil Sonwalkar Clinical Director (CHFT) 01422 357171

INTERVIEWS WILL BE HELD: Tuesday 10 November 2026
