To be considered for this role you must have:

  • Registration with the General Medical Council (GMC) or eligible for registration within 6 months of interview.
  • Hold Specialist Registration with the GMC (or be eligible within 6 months of interview).
    Or hold the relevant experience at Consultant level.
