Job overview
This opportunity is ideal for an ambitious physician with a keen interest in cardiology, aiming for advancement at registrar level. Successful candidates will play a pivotal role in managing cardiology services at Lister Hospital, overseeing both in-patient and out-patient care for patients with diverse cardiac conditions. Comprehensive training in both invasive and non-invasive cardiology is provided, along with active involvement in the cardiology registrar on-call schedule. Experienced individuals may pursue specialized training in intervention (PCI and PPCI) or Advanced Imaging (CMR, Stress Echo, Cardiac CT).
Main duties of the job
In addition to clinical duties, there will be structured teaching responsibilities and opportunities for collaborative research initiatives. Core-level cardiology experience is a must, with proficiency in echocardiography considered advantageous. Reporting to the Clinical Director for Cardiology, the successful candidate will be integral to our team and contribute to the ongoing excellence of our services. Participation in the cardiology registrar on-call rotation is expected. The post holder will be encouraged to participate in audits, presentations, and teachings. Although, this post is not recognised for training the appointee will be encouraged in their training and development within the role.
Working for our organisation
At East and North Hertfordshire NHS Trust, we are proud of the range of general and specialist services we provide and our 6,000 or so dedicated staff ensure our patients get the best care. Our ability to be flexible and innovative in the way in which we work and deliver our services to our catchment has never been more important than it is now.
We run the following hospitals:
- The Lister Hospital, Stevenage
- New Queen Elizabeth II (New QEII), Welwyn Garden City
- Hertford County, Hertford
- Mount Vernon Cancer Centre (MVCC), Northwood
We have ambitious plans to become an outstanding, patient-led Trust where dedicated staff provide high-quality, compassionate care to our patients. We continue to undergo significant transformation and our staff and patients are at the heart of delivering this ambitious agenda.
We are committed to a positive work life balance for our employees. This means that any employee is entitled to seek to work flexible working patterns and we are committed to listen and consider all requests. Such requests, of course, have to be made and considered formally, and will need to be balanced against service needs, but our starting point will always be to find ways to support making them happen.
