You will provide general and regional anaesthesia for a range of surgical specialities including orthopaedics, general surgery and colorectal surgery.

There is a particular focus on our highly successful national orthopaedic programme supported by our Enhanced Recovery programme.

It is an exciting time to join the Golden Jubilee University National Hospital. As part of an £80m Scottish Government investment, we are currently expanding orthopaedic and general surgery. This expansion will double our orthopaedic activity and increase general surgical activity by 160%. Our suite of 15 theatres is increasing to 26, opening in stages between 2023 and 2025.

As one of our valued Consultant Anaesthetists, you will be part of an efficient, effective and supportive team, gain experience and benefit from our unique mix of planned care services, as well as benefit from flexible working patterns and on-call commitments to support a better work/life balance.

The clinical work will include anaesthetic services in theatre, pre-assessment and supporting the Acute Pain Service.
