Description
Trust Junior Clinical Fellow Post (ST1/2 Level) in General Paediatrics

The opportunity has arisen for a Trust Fellow Post in General Paediatrics Full Time. The post will commence on 05 April 2023 for four months.

The post holder would take part in the General Paediatric middle grade Rota.

The post holder would be offered the same training opportunities as the doctors in training on the rota with dedicated teaching sessions, educational supervision and opportunities for study leave.

Lewisham Hospital has a long track record in supporting its doctors who are not on the paediatric training scheme and supporting them where appropriate in successful entry to paediatric run through training.


The hospital is located on a number of bus routes and there are a quarter hourly train services into Central London from Ladywell Station.

There is a wide variety of housing available in the area.

Many of the consultant staff lives in nearby Greenwich, Blackheath, Bromley or Beckenham where there are good shopping areas and schools.


Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust is a community focused provider of local and acute care, providing high quality services to over one million people living across the London boroughs of Lewisham, Greenwich and Bexley.


With a turnover of around £700 million, we provide services at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Woolwich, University Hospital Lewisham and a range of community settings in Lewisham.

We also provide some services at Queen Mary's Hospital in Sidcup.


The Trust has 7,500 staff and we have recently invested in our workforce to grow our establishment across a number of key services.

In 2020 we won a London NHS Parliamentary Award in recognition of a wide range of initiatives to make the organisation a great place to work.

We are accredited as a flexible working employer offering a number of flexible working options for staff. We are also accredited as a London Living Wage employer for our substantive, bank and contractors.
