Description

An opportunity has arisen for a Consultant in Infection (Microbiology or Microbiology/Infectious Diseases).

(ID/GIM would be considered depending on experience)

This is an exciting opportunity to join the Microbiology Department in the largest Trust in the country.

The Department is involved in a Trust wide project to create a cohesive infection service across all the hospitals within the Trust, in what is one of the largest infection departments in the UK.

This will incorporate colleagues in microbiology, virology, infectious diseases, sexual and reproductive health, respiratory medicine, genitourinary medicine and infection prevention.

This is a great opportunity to join a friendly forward thinking infection service at an exciting time

We are looking for a highly motivated individual to join our team and be a driving force in further developing our infection service.

These posts would be well suited to patient facing clinicians looking to develop specialist interests in any of the many areas available.

From an infection perspective the opportunities to develop on existing links are considerable.

A joint 50/50 post with GIM and infection would also be considered.

The post includes cross site working as the job plan requires. The clinical laboratory is located on the Oxford Road Campus.

MFT is England's largest NHS Trust with a turnover of £2.4bn and is on a different scale than most other NHS Trusts.

We're creating the most exceptional integrated health and social care system for the 1 million patients who rely on our services every year.

Bringing together 10 hospitals and community services from across Manchester, Trafford and beyond, we champion collaborative working and transformation, encouraging our 28,000 workforce to pursue their most ambitious goals.

We set standards that other Trusts seek to emulate so you'll benefit from a scale of opportunity that is nothing short of extraordinary.

We're proud to be one of the major academic research centres and education providers in England and Research and Innovation is the heart of all we do, providing you with a robust infrastructure to encourage and facilitate high-quality research programmes.

We're also excited to be embarking on our new Green Plan which will set out how MFT continues to play its part in making healthcare more sustainable and tackling climate change.

At MFT, we create and foster a culture of inclusion and belonging, provide equal opportunities for career development that are fair, open and transparent, protecting your health and wellbeing and shaping the future of our organisation together.

Join us and you'll work with some of the best people in the NHS, thriving in a Trust united in its values, purpose and commitment to our patients and a drive for continual innovation and improvement.

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
