Job description

Fixed term: 9 months (End contract 30/06/2027) Are you an experienced physician in Diabetes and Endocrinology looking for new opportunities for career...

The job plan is anticipated to contain 10 programmed activities with an approximate split of 8.5 direct clinical care programmed activities (CPA) of Diabetes and Endocrinology and General Internal Medicine and 1.5 PA's for supporting professional activity (SPA). However, we are willing to accommodate any different number of PAs as the service permits.

Alongside colleagues, you will provide specialist led inpatient and outpatient Diabetes & Endocrine services. This includes ward referrals and supporting the team of trained DSNs.

Your prime clinical responsibility will be accountability for the continuous care of in-patients and outpatients, and as part of this responsibility, a share of the out-of-hours general medical on -call rota arrangements at the Trust.

You will work as an integral part of the Multidisciplinary Trust wide Diabetes network and attend Clinical Governance and Multidisciplinary Team meetings at multiple Trust and external provider sites.

Appropriate standards of care for patients must be a priority as well as appropriate standards of education and training for medical staff in training. Therefore, you will contribute to the teaching of medical students, trainee advanced care practitioners, specialist nurses and participate in weekly postgraduate meetings as well as audit, governance, morbidity and mortality and training meetings.

North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust is a large, complex organisation serving a diverse population across multiple sites. We are committed to delivering high quality, safe and effective care, with a strong focus on continuous improvement and clinical leadership.

You will be joining a supportive and collaborative senior leadership community, working closely with clinical and corporate colleagues to address key priorities and challenges.
