3 x Senior Clinical Fellow Post
Applicants are invited to apply for the role of Senior Clinical Fellow post ST3 Level in Plastic Surgery from 1.3.17 until 1.8.17.
Although this is a non-training post, all of the duties and commitments of the Locum Appointment for Service (LAS) trainee are exactly the same as the Specialist Trainees. Post holders are actively involved in the Unit’s research, audit and teaching programmes. The successful candidate will share the rota with Specialist trainees and their duties will be similar to them encouraging participation in teaching, audit and research. This job is intended for less experienced trainees, who want to increase their experience in plastic surgery before applying for ST posts. Due to this, previous candidates have found the job very useful and it has helped them in their applications for ST3 level posts.
