Locally Employed Doctor (Higher) Trauma and Orthopaedics

UHB provides care over 4 hospitals across Birmingham and Solihull and is aligned to the local universities and provide undergraduate education for medical, nursing and allied professions. The posts will provide exposure to the whole range of trauma activity. There are two on call rotas and the hospitals are grouped as Heartlands, Good Hope and Solihull (HGS) and Queen Elizabeth (QE). On calls are therefore split as QE only or alternating between Heartlands hospital and Good Hope hospital if working on the HGS rota. We like to rotate between the respective rotas every 6-12 months, so that they get the full breadth of T&O exposure as each site does different activity.

University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust strives to have an inclusive culture where everyone feels like they belong, can thrive, knows that they add value and feels valued. We do this by developing compassionate and culturally competent leaders, being values driven in all that we do and by creating a welcoming and inclusive workplace that thrives on the diversity of our people. As such we want to attract and recruit talented individuals from all backgrounds, and for each of you to feel supported for the diversity you bring, to achieve your full potential. For those staff with a disability, including physical disability, long term health condition, mental health or neurodiverse condition, this also means being committed to making reasonable adjustments needed for you to carry out your role.
