The Neurology service at UHB provides sub-specialist services in Multiple Sclerosis, Movement Disorders such as Parkinson 's disease including Deep Brain Stimulation, Motor Neurone Disease (MND), Epilepsy, Neuromuscular Diseases, Neuroimmunology and Headache. There is joint working across Neurosurgery, Trauma, Stroke, Neurophysiology and Neuropsychiatry. The Neurology team consists of 24.85 WTE consultants as well as support from Clinical Nurse Specialists and Physiotherapists. The speciality delivers outpatient-based activity which includes some procedure-based activity that takes place within the outpatients setting. Neurology has 36 inpatient beds on ward 411 that are used to provide both a regional tertiary service and local secondary care provision. The elective inpatient element delivered by Neurology consists of procedures carried out in several locations within the Trust for example: Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) and infusion therapies delivered on a dedicated day case unit for neurology patients; muscle biopsy delivered in Welcome theatres; and a variety of procedures (including lumbar punctures) via Ambulatory Care Beds.
These are whole time appointments to the University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust. The appointee would provide a maximum of 10 programmed activities, comprising a minimum of 8 programmed activities for direct clinical care and a maximum of 2 for supporting professional activities. All new consultants will be expected to take on additional educational, research or management responsibilities to contribute to SPA time to bring this time to 2.0 SPAs and that failing this, the job plan will revert to allocation of 1.5 SPA.

The appointee 's role will include provision of outpatient General Neurology and ward consultations.

It is expected that the post holder will work in close collaboration with the other consultants in providing clinical care for patients. In addition, there are dedicated clinical nurse specialists.
Commitment to research (including multi-centre trials) and teaching is encouraged. This will be reflected in the SPA time and in the applicant 's job plan. The University of Birmingham is located adjacent to the new Queen Elizabeth Hospital and an honorary appointment to the University will be available to an applicant with an active research interest.

Band 6 Senior People Advisor
University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust View all jobs
Posted 21 day(s) ago
Reference: 304-1101463
Job summary
Following the successful appointment to a number of our Trust wide vacancies, we are now recruiting to the remaining Band 6 Senior People Advisor opportunity within our Heartlands People Team.
Summer 26 marked an important point for our People Directorate and for our Site based team. After a period of real change and challenge, our teams are coming together with purpose, and this role offers the chance to put the heart in Heartlands by supporting the colleagues and services that sit at the centre of patient care for our communities.
This is a 12-month fixed-term opportunity, offering the chance to step quickly into a high-impact role and provide immediate support to a busy acute hospital team. It is designed to maintain continuity and momentum while also offering valuable development, visibility and exposure within a large and evolving People function where progression is actively supported.
Led by our Senior People Partners, Eugene Komeng and Sukhman Mander, the team works closely with operational and clinical leaders across Heartlands to provide responsive, values-led people support, helping to put the heart in Heartlands for our colleagues and services.
Heartlands is a busy, complex and deeply important part of UHB. This role will suit someone who wants to be close to operational services, build trusted relationships with clinical and non-clinical leaders, and make a visible contribution to staff experience in a hospital where people practice really matters.
Main duties of the job
These roles form part of the natural movement within our service, where colleague development, secondments and maternity leave create opportunities for others to step in, grow and contribute. For the right individuals, this is a chance to build experience, visibility and capability within a complex and fast-paced NHS environment.
You will thrive in this role if you are able to recognise patterns where others see noise, ask difficult questions with compassion, and bring clarity, structure and calm to complex situations. You will understand the balance between urgency and importance and be motivated by the opportunity to make a meaningful difference to staff experience.
The core expectation is clear: you will be someone colleagues turn to when things are tough, complex or sensitive. You will lead on challenging employee relations matters, support leaders through difficult workforce and cultural issues, and use insight and evidence to influence decision-making. You will build trusted relationships across clinical and non-clinical areas and bring both professional judgement and humanity to your work, helping to create the conditions for improved staff and patient outcomes.
You will be visible, respected and, at times, relied upon. Just as importantly, you will be supported by an experienced AD of People and a directorate of specialist colleagues who understand the realities of delivering HR in today's NHS.
About us
University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust strives to have an inclusive culture where everyone feels like they belong, can thrive, knows that they add value and feels valued. We do this by developing compassionate and culturally competent leaders, being values driven in all that we do and by creating a welcoming and inclusive workplace that thrives on the diversity of our people. As such we want to attract and recruit talented individuals from all backgrounds, and for each of you to feel supported for the diversity you bring, to achieve your full potential. For those staff with a disability, including physical disability, long term health condition, mental health or neurodiverse condition, this also means being committed to making reasonable adjustments needed for you to carry out your role.
