Description
Applications are invited for a Consultant in Paediatric Rheumatology.


This is a new post joining the Child and Adolescent East of England Rheumatology Service (CHEERS), an established service delivering Paediatric Rheumatology care for children in the East of England region.


The post will be based at Addenbrooke's Hospital, and it is expected that the post holder will deliver outreach services, predominantly in the south of the region, approximately once a week.


CHEERS is actively involved in undergraduate and postgraduate teaching as well as providing a region wide education and training programme for professionals within our network.

The Service leads in national research, and recruits patients for national and international multi centre collaborative research studies, and there is scope for the applicant to develop their own clinical and research interests.

Cambridge is an excellent base for researchers to thrive, and a great place to live.


You will provide safe, kind and excellent specialist care to children and young people with rheumatological conditions in the East of England region, delivering this as part of our specialist multidisciplinary team.


You will be fully registered with the GMC and have a CCT in Paediatrics or be within six months of award of CCT at the time of interview, and have specialist training in Paediatric Rheumatology (National GRID or equivalent).

Applications are welcomed from those unable to work full time for personal reasons or those wishing to job-share.


As part of our commitment to supporting the medical workforce in the part they play in delivering an excellent caring service to patients, all newly appointed Consultants attend our five-day Consultant Development programme within a year of joining the Trust.

Leadership is a key requirement of doctors' professional work and this innovative programme is designed to support Consultants to hone the leadership and management skills they need to succeed at CUH.


The applicant must have demonstrable skills in listening, reading, writing and speaking in English that enable effective communication about medical topics with patients and colleagues, as set out in the GMC's Good Medical Practice Non-UK applicants must possess the IELTS/OET exam before obtaining a GMC licence to practice.

Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is an Equal Opportunities Employer.
