As this is primarily a Maternal-Fetal Medicine sub-specialist role, the post-holder will not be expected to participate in the consultant of the week ward round rota nor maternity assessment unit work unless they wish to. There will be weekend ward cover as part of on call commitments.

Twilights and On Call rota

The successful candidate will participate in the twilight on-call Rota on an approximate 1 in 28 basis; the frequency potentially reduced with additional appointments. These shifts are paid as part of job planned PA allowance, rather than as an on-call supplement.
