Being a large DGH with a proud history, we are big enough to get interesting cases, but small enough to care, coach and develop.

With over 200 consultants, a similar number of trainees and approximately 60 (with existing plans to expand to 80+) medical undergraduates throughout the year, NGH provides comprehensive care and extensive training opportunities.


With this in mind, we have built a state of the art emergency assessment unit (Nye Bevan building) and are developing new ways of working to streamline in-patient care and optimize working with our partners.

We are a clinically led organization with most of senior management coming from nursing and medical roles.

This offers great opportunities to get involved with all levels of care from departmental to the wider picture of the hospital as a whole.


NGH has an excellent social centre with a large library, gym with swimming pool and the Cripps Education Centre where lunch and snacks are available in one of our restaurants away from the main hospital.

Frequent educational sessions run in the Centre for all levels of staff and it serves as an oasis from the clinical areas.

For the full job description and main responsibilities please see attached job description and person specification.
