    Job summary

    An exciting opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic and motivated senior doctor in training (above ST4 or equivalent) with an interest in leadership, management and quality improvement to join the Department of Acute Medicine, Whipps Cross University Hospital, as a chief registrar.

    The chief registrar role provides senior trainees with 40-50% protected time to develop skills and confidence in leadership, management and quality improvement. Learning that chief registrars gain from the Royal College of Physicians' (RCP's) bespoke development programme will be put into practice in a supported environment that provides autonomy, flexibility and support to develop and support projects that address key local challenges and priorities. This may include service improvement, engagement and morale, education and training, workforce, and sustainability.

    Main duties of the job

    The chief registrar role is a leadership role for senior specialty trainees. The role provides 40-50% protected time to develop and implement local initiatives focusing on, for example, service improvement, engagement and morale, education and training, workforce and sustainability.

    Chief registrars benefit from access to a bespoke taught development programme provided by the RCP, which runs from September 2024 to June 2025 and comprises five 2-day modules that chief registrars are expected to attend.

    The chief registrar will ideally report to and be mentored by the medical director, a nominated deputy, or other senior clinical leader. The mentor role requires a minimum time commitment of monthly 1 hour meetings with the chief registrar, and this commitment should be taken into account when nominating a suitable mentor.

    The chief registrar will also have a named educational supervisor for their clinical role, who may or may not be the same as their clinical supervisor.

    There will be formal educational oversight of the role, with an induction, educational agreement, personal development plan and regular appraisals.
