Job summary

Post available from March 2027

This is an exciting opportunity for a successful candidate to join a busy orthopaedic department at Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. The post will be based primarily at Basingstoke & North Hampshire Hospital.

The successful candidate will need be fully committed to the provision of high-quality orthopaedic knee service and will be expected to take a lead role in the department's current knee research portfolio.

The department has a strong track record in research with on-going industry funded projects and systematic reviews.

In addition to research commitments, there is a clinical role involving supervised and independent operating sessions, and outpatient clinics, forming part of a highly motivated multidisciplinary team. There may be opportunities to supplement the quoted salary with additional elective sessions and on calls as required by the department on an ad hoc basis.

Our clinical staff have a continuing commitment to their patients and for the proper functioning of the Department. The post holder will be required to undertake administrative and managerial duties and exert leadership as necessary to fulfil this responsibility.

The post holder will be asked to cover a weekend on-call on an up to 1 in 18 basis. There will also be opportunities to contribute to the general on-call rota should individual applicants wish to do so.
