South Tees NHS Foundation Trust is delighted to offer the post of Trust Doctor in Cardiothoracic Anaesthesia and Critical Care at James Cook University Hospital in Middlesbrough.

We are looking for dynamic forward thinking individuals who will join a friendly, committed team who provide anaesthesia and critical care for approximately 1000 cardiac and 700 thoracic cases per year.

Our varied theatre caseload includes all aspects of cardiothoracic surgery with particular focus on mínimally invasive aortic and mitral surgery and major aortic work.

We have an established TAVI programme alongside expanding thoracic programme which includes:
VAT lobectomies, thymectomies and robotic thoracic surgery. A robotic mitral surgery programme is in the planning stages.

Our critical care unit is a specialist 10 bed unit caring for post-op cardiac and thoracic patients, and in addition receives emergency cardiology admissions.

Our patient outcomes are consistently excellent.

We are a recognised training unit for advanced cardiothoracic anaesthesia and critical care. We are a FICM accredited training unit with a faculty tutor for CICU.

Plentiful academic opportunities also exist for teaching, simulation, publication and research.

The successful applicants will join a busy but supportive department.

Out of hours, the primary responsibility is to the cardiac intensive care unit, however the opportunity for supervised emergency cath lab and theatre work is available.

The rota includes advanced critical care practitioners (ACCPs), rotating anaesthetic specialty registrars and senior advanced trainees in Cardiothoracic Anaesthesia. Dedicated consultant supervision will be provided. Salary will be in keeping with equivalent salary scales for doctors in training. Study leave and annual leave will be aligned with Trust policy.
