The 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

- Will relish the opportunity to develop their own ideas and initiatives
- Is committed to and passionate about improving the NHS.
The Chief Registrar will be expected to attend modules delivered as part of the RCP's bespoke development programme, which will cover, for example, change management, team culture and development, quality improvement, leadership, influencing and personal resilience.
The Chief Registrar will be mentored and gain a unique insight into NHS leadership and management processes, as well as deeper knowledge of NHS structures and stakeholders.
If you are a doctor in training, the chief registrar role may be undertaken in programme or out of programme.
Detailed job description and main responsibilities
The chief registrar job description is broad in scope.
Chief registrars should focus on addressing key local challenges and priorities, which may include some or all of the following:
- Providing a 'bridge' between senior clinical leaders, managers and the wider trainee workforce to improve communication, engagement and morale.
- Service improvement, for example redesigning pathways, implementing new technology and establishing new services to improve flow and outcomes for patients.
- Improving the quality of clinical and nonclinical education and training activities, and supporting/mentoring other trainees to engage in quality improvement.
- Involvement in workforce planning and improving the deployment of trainees to meet service needs and improve morale.
- Improving efficiency and reducing waste.
- Working across teams and boundaries to engage stakeholders in quality improvement and influence change.
The chief registrar should attend departmental and divisional management meetings to gain an understanding of management and the wider social, political and economic influences on healthcare delivery.
"_This role gave me the opportunity to take on a defined leadership role, where I worked on a variety of innovative projects and took on new responsibilities, networking with clinical and non-clinical leaders and managers. This opened doors to work with people and teams I hadn't been involved with before, but who play pivotal role in the day-to-day functioning of things at work._
- It was certainly a valuable experience as a senior registrar in preparation for a consultant role."_
- "I thoroughly enjoyed my time as one of the Chief registrars in NUH. This post catapulted me into a leadership and management world I had never been exposed to. I made new contacts and built relationships with people within the organisation I previously would not have met. I was invited into Trust wide and regional committees/incentives and influenced positive change. I was also heavily involved in two business cases that secured over £1 million worth of funding for junior doctor posts for the Trust._
- Overall, it's a fantastic opportunity for anyone interested in leadership and management."_
