PMConsultant in Obstetrics & Gynaecology

Overview

Applicants are invited to apply for a Consultant post with NHS Grampian in combined Obstetrics and Gynaecology. The post will be primarily based at Dr Gray’s Hospital (DGH), Elgin and will contribute to acute Obstetrics at Aberdeen Maternity Hospital (AMH).

The successful candidate will join a strong team of 26 Consultant Obstetricians and Gynecologists in NHS Grampian. DGH is NHS Grampian’s district general hospital serving the people of Moray. It provides a comprehensive Gynaecology and Maternity service, with a current model of midwifery-led intrapartum care.

We are seeking Obstetric & Gynaecology Consultant colleagues to join our expanding team at this exciting phase of service redesign. You will be fully supported by a thriving, friendly department and wider hospital team. You will be encouraged to advance service and academic development, with the opportunity to accommodate sub-specialty interests in NHS Grampian and within North of Scotland networks.

Those trained in the UK should have evidence of higher specialist training leading to CCT or be within 6 months of confirmed entry on the GMC Specialist Register from date of interview.

CESR (Certificate of Eligibility for Specialist Registration) or Portfolio Pathway route doctors are eligible to apply for a substantive Consultant post only after CESR or Portfolio Pathway specialist registration is awarded. Those with an International Recognised Specialist Qualification approved by GMC should have a confirmed entry on the GMC Specialist Register.

Applications from doctors with appropriate specialist training and experience who are not listed on the GMC Specialist Register can be considered for a Locum Consultant post (up to 12 months) if no substantive Consultant appointment is made. While in locum employment, an application to obtain a CESR or Portfolio Pathway Specialist Registration can be made to the GMC.

Full registration with a licence to practise with the GMC is required (licence to practise must be in place prior to starting in post).
