Applications are invited for a 12-month fixed-term Locum Consultant in Paediatric Trauma & Orthopaedic Surgery. This is a full-time Locum Consultant appointment, making up a team of 4 full-time Paediatric Orthopaedic Consultants in the Norwich Paediatric Orthopaedic Unit. Whilst this consultant post is primarily based at the Norfolk & Norwich University Hospitals, the appointee will have regular fixed commitments at either the James Paget University Hospital, Great Yarmouth, or Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Kings Lynn.
A candidate who is unable for personal reasons to undertake the duties of a whole-time post will receive equal consideration. If such a candidate is appointed the job content will be modified as appropriate in consultation with consultant colleagues and local management.
We welcome all applications irrespective of age, disability, gender, sexual orientation, race or religion. Additionally, people with disabilities will be offered an interview providing they meet the minimum criteria for the post. The Trust operates job share and flexible working.

The new appointee will have regular external duties (once per week) at either the James Paget Hospital, Great Yarmouth, Norfolk or Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Kings Lynn. This will include outpatient clinics, operating sessions and administrative /managerial duties. It is expected that the new appointee will fully integrate within the department, contributing to education and service development in addition to the clinical duties.
