NHS Lothian is committed to encouraging equality and diversity among our workforce and eliminating unlawful discrimination.

The aim is for our workforce to be truly representative and for each employee to feel respected and able to give their best.

Applications are invited for two Consultant Anaesthetist posts (Full time 40 hours per week, permanent) at the Western General Hospital, Edinburgh.

This is an opportunity to join a friendly and enthusiastic department supporting cancer surgery for Urology, Breast and Colorectal specialties.

The posts have arisen due to retirement, and are available from November 2023, with the opportunity to start in August 2023 if desired.

You will have completed, or be close to completing, your training in Anaesthesia.

The post is general in nature, but efforts will be made to include an area of interest to the successful applicant.

Sub-specialty interests in perioperative medicine, preoperative assessment, acute pain medicine, or long-term vascular access will be particularly welcome. The post is full time with 8 direct clinical care programmed activities and 2 supporting professional activities. Up to two extra programmed activities may be available depending on the needs of the service.

The Western General Hospital has an enthusiastic Anaesthetic department with close links to the University of Edinburgh Department of Anaesthesia, Critical Care and Pain Medicine.

As a result, a range of opportunities exist for teaching, research, and quality improvement work.

Edinburgh is a fantastic, vibrant city to work and live in, with a wide range of cultural and leisure pursuits available.

Out with the city, there is easy access to the beautiful surrounding countryside and coastline.
