Working as a consultant
Consultants working with us provide clinical leadership for multidisciplinary teams as well as participate in defining the strategic direction for the Trust.
Many of our consultants work in partnership with other organisations and agencies to develop their service area and further develop knowledge within their specialism. There are also opportunities to get involved in research and teaching.
We're establishing a new mentorship program to support newly appointed consultants to thrive in their role.

If you want to speak to us about consultant opportunities we have available, please get in touch. Email Dr Rupinder Kaler, Medical Lead for Recruitment and Retention.
I have a close relationship with my peers who are a regular source of support and ideas.
