Description
Manchester Royal Infirmary is expanding our Department of Medicine for Older People workforce.

Part of this includes new Consultant Geriatrician posts with a special interest in Frailty, Community, Movement Disorders or Surgical Liaison.

These posts are all 10PA's and job plans can be adjusted to the needs of potential applicants.


Over the last 3 years the department has transformed our front door frailty, community, outpatient and surgical liaison provision which we hope to be able to continue expanding.

At Manchester Royal Infirmary the department operates two weekend rota's for General Geriatrics ward support and Frailty SDEC. The expected commitment is 1 in 8, working 8am - 4pm. We currently do not participate in the General Medicine on call rota.


You will be part of the wider Inpatient Medical Specialties Clinical Service Unit at MRI which includes the specialties of Respiratory, Haematology, Department of Medicine for Older People, Palliative Care and the Department of Medicine.


We would be supportive and open to Geriatrician applicants with specialist knowledge and interest in one of the following specialties; Movement Disorders, Surgical Liaison, Acute Medicine, Acute Oncology and Frailty.

COVID-19 vaccination remains the best way to protect yourself, your family, your colleagues and of course patients from the virus when working in our healthcare settings.

Whilst COVID-19 vaccination is not currently a condition of employment, we do encourage our staff to get vaccinated.

If you are unvaccinated, there is helpful advice and information available by searching on the 'NHS England' website where you can also find out more about how to access the vaccination.

Diversity Matters

We're looking forward to hearing from you
