Pursuit of a qualification in medical education is encouraged and fully funded.
The balance of time will be in clinical practice with protected time for personal development (audit, research and/or completion of certificate course in medical education).This contributes to the on-call rota but there are no night shifts. This post therefore attracts a 40% banding supplement Base on a salary range of £45,504 - £71,550. The appointment will be whole time for the duration of 12 months commencing 7 August 2024 and will be situated entirely at Crosshouse Emergency department.

Annual leave is also not fixed to certain weeks of a rota pattern.
This highly sought after post is suited to trainees who have satisfactorily completed foundation training or can demonstrate equivalent competencies, and wish to develop skills in medical education or clinical research.
