Job summary
Consultant Geriatrician with an interest including acute and GIM
10PA's
The Isle of Wight NHS Trust is seeking an enthusiastic and forward-thinking Consultant in Care of the Elderly to join our ambitious and compassionate team at St Mary's Hospital. This is a unique opportunity to play a pivotal role in delivering high-quality geriatric care to a defined island population while helping to shape and develop services within an integrated healthcare system and we are looking for dynamic, motivated, visionary Geriatricians to help construct and develop an innovative department of Medicine for Older People.
These appointments are integral to serving our local population of older people, ensuring that they get the very highest quality care within their places of residence, through acute medical pathways and access to specialist departments and resources when appropriate.
We are committed to delivering excellent, evidence-based care and continuously improving services in line with national best practice and Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA) approach offering gold standard care for older adults. The successful candidate will join a motivated multidisciplinary team and have the opportunity to contribute significantly to the strategic direction of geriatric services across the Island.
Main duties of the job
This post will require you to work collaboratively as a team, working alongside our two established geriatricians, the wider multidisciplinary teams, specialist colleagues and the operational team. We are looking for people who have experience working across traditional health and social care boundaries.
All posts will include a chosen specialty area - we are particularly looking for Geriatricians with an interest in:
Perioperative care,
Ortho-geriatrics
Frailty,
General geriatrics,
Movement disorders,
Multi-morbidity including end stage organ failures (cardiac, renal, respiratory)
Unlike larger organisations where individual influence can be diluted, the very nature of the Isle of Wight NHS Trust means geriatric consultants can have a direct impact on the entire patient pathway. From emergency assessment and acute treatment through rehabilitation and community outpatient follow-up, consultants are able to drive improvements that translate rapidly into enhanced LOS improvements and, most importantly, better outcomes for patients.
About us

The Isle of Wight offers a unique and enriching lifestyle:
Stunning Natural Beauty: Explore breathtaking coastlines and picturesque countryside right outside your door.
Convenient Mainland Access: Enjoy quick ferry links to Portsmouth and Southampton (from just 10 minutes), with London reachable in 90 minutes by rail.

About us
NHS England has a wide range of statutory functions, responsibilities and regulatory powers. These are focused on supporting the wider NHS to deliver high quality care, as well as doing those things that are best done once for the whole NHS.
Our staff bring expertise across clinical, operational, commissioning, technology, data science, cyber security, software engineering, education, and commercial specialisms -- enabling us to design and deliver high-quality NHS services.
In March 2025, the Government announced that NHS England and the Department of Health and Social Care will increasingly merge functions, ultimately leading to NHS England being fully integrated into the department.
If you currently work within the NHS and if successful at interview, we will initiate an Inter Authority Transfer (IAT) via the Electronic Staff Record (ESR).This retrieves key data from your current or previous NHS employer to support onboarding, including competency status, Continuous Service Dates (CSD), and annual leave entitlement. You may opt out at any stage of the process.
Colleagues with a contractual office base are expected to spend, on average, at least 40% of their time working in our offices.
Staff recruited from outside the NHS will usually be appointed at the bottom of the pay band.
We cannot offer visa sponsorship for any vacancies.
