The Trust serves almost 500,000 people in North Staffordshire and provides a range of speciality services for more than 3,000,000.

It employs over 7,000 staff and has over 1,200 beds.

During the past year we saw over 100,000 patients within our Emergency department which is one of the busiest in the country.


The post-holder will work with the diabetes/general medicine and endocrinology team to provide diabetes & endocrinology/ general medicines service to a catchment population across Staffordshire, Leek Moorlands and North Shropshire.

The successful applicant will join a Diabetes and Endocrinology team made up of 8 Consultants.

We also have 2 x 28-bedded acute medical wards where most of the patients with acute metabolic diseases are admitted, supported by junior and middle grade staff.


The post-holder will work across two Diabetes & Endocrinology / General Medicine wards, in conjunction with another Junior Doctor and the consultant who provides cover to the ward.

Participation in out-of-hours-work and weekend ward rounds is required as part of this post.


The post-holder will be responsible for the day-to-day management of the patients on the ward, the majority of whom will have had a period on another hospital ward prior to transfer to Diabetes & Endocrinology / General Medicine.


The consultant facilitates a morning Board Round with a requirement to work towards prompt discharges, aiming for Home before Lunch.
