University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust View all jobs
Posted 28 day(s) ago
Reference: 2322117
Job summary
An opportunity for a Neonatal Consultant has arisen within our neonatal service The appointment will be whole time. Any Consultant who is unable for personal reasons, to work full time, will be eligible to be considered for the post. If such a person is appointed, modification of the job content will be discussed on a personal basis in consultation with Consultant colleagues. Your normal place of work will be as discussed at interview and will be confirmed in Section 1 of your contract but you may be required to work in other locations of the Trust. In particular, flexibility is required across the two main Hospital sites (Leicester Royal Infirmary, Leicester General Hospital).
Main duties of the job
Job Plan The job plan will be subject to annual review, with any revisions sought by mutual agreement but it is expected that the successful candidate will work with the CMG Management team to ensure that services are delivered efficiently and reflect best practice with processes and governance to match - this may require new and flexible ways of working in the future. This post consists of a core job plan with 10 PA post including 1.5 SPA. The job plan consists of different types of weeks: Service weeks covering the Intensive Care Unit at the Leicester Royal Infirmary Service weeks covering the Low Dependency Units at both the Leicester Royal Infirmary and the Leicester General Hospital Non Service Weeks Transport Weeks On call nights with compensatory time off It is expected that most Consultants within the Trust will have 2.5 PA's for Supporting Professional Activities (SPA). 1.5 PA's are allocated as a minimum to all consultants for SPA in order to support the requirements of revalidation which include activities such as participating in audit, CPD and mandatory training. Up to a further 1 PA will be available for SPA by mutual agreement as part of the job planning process for further appropriate verifiable SPA. Where a consultant decides not to undertake additional SPA over and above 1.5 PA's, suitable alternative clinical work will be offered to bring the job plan up to 10 PA's.
About us
Our new strategy, developed with the support and feedback of colleagues, patients, and partners, is our compass for the next seven years (2023-2030).
We have four primary goals:
- high-quality care for all,
- being a great place to work,
- partnerships for impact, and
- research and education excellence
And we will embed health equality in all we do - taking active steps to reduce the avoidable differences in healthcare that some people face, working in partnership with communities.
Our strategy is underpinned by new values and we will work to ensure they are an everyday reality for all:
- we are compassionate,
- we are proud,
- we are inclusive, and
- we are one team
This is an exciting moment as we look to the future with clarity on what we already do well and where we need to focus our energies to make an even bigger difference for the people we serve.

If you are passionate about supporting children and young people to improve their emotional wellbeing and resilience, we would love to hear from you.
We are looking for an Emotional Wellbeing Practitioner to join our Wakefield Emotional Health and Wellbeing Service. You will support children, young people and families through early intervention, advice and goal focused emotional wellbeing support across community and educational settings.
In this rewarding role, you will carry out emotional wellbeing assessments, deliver evidence based interventions and provide guidance to help children and young people access the right support at the right time. You will work closely with families, schools and partner agencies to build positive outcomes and reduce barriers to engagement.
