This post is ideally suited to candidates who wish to commence or further develop their specialist training in cardiology and who possess the appropriate level of prior experience.
University Hospital Southampton (UHS) is a busy tertiary cardiac and cardiothoracic centre. The successful applicant will join the wider medical team within the UHS Cardiology Department, gaining exposure to a broad range of cardiology services. The on-call commitment is currently between 1:10 and 1:14 and includes coronary care unit (CCU) cover, nights, weekends, outpatient clinics, and ward-based duties.
The department provides comprehensive cardiology services, with training opportunities available across all subspecialties, tailored to the successful applicant's interests and level of experience. These may include echocardiography, invasive cardiology, and other specialist areas of practice.
Applicants should be undertaking training in non-invasive cardiology and be competent in emergency transthoracic echocardiography. Some previous experience in the cardiac catheterisation laboratory is also desirable.
The post includes 1-2 dedicated cardiac training sessions and 1-2 outpatient clinics per week, alongside protected time for professional development activities, including research. The post-holder will also be expected to undertake the administrative responsibilities associated with patient care and the effective running of the clinical department.
As one of the largest acute teaching Trusts in England, we offer learning and development opportunities to help you achieve the career you aspire to. UHS is rated 'Good' by the CQC and in the latest national NHS Staff Survey, we were in the top 10 acute trusts for staff engagement and for staff recommending the hospital as a place to work or receive care.
We support flexible working and will consider requests taking into account the needs of the service. UHS employees are able to access a range of NHS discounts, are entitled to a minimum of 35 days paid holiday (pro rata), and we offer a generous pension scheme.

The New Forest National Park and beaches of the Jurassic coast are also right on our doorstep. The city offers living costs 20% lower than London and 14 schools rated outstanding by Ofsted.
We believe that using technology wisely shows strong time management and commitment to innovation. However, personalising your recruitment application to highlight your unique skills and experiences is crucial. Relying too heavily on generic, AI-generated content instead of drawing from your own strengths and accomplishments may lead to your application being rejected if multiple candidates present identical or similar information.
