Job summary
Applications are invited for a Subspecialty Senior Clinical Fellowship programme in Trauma Anaesthesia at Addenbrooke's Hospital, Cambridge, UK.
This post is to start from 05 August 2026 until 03 August 2027.
Main duties of the job
This fellowship post would suit applicants who have completed or nearly completed a recognised anaesthetic specialist training programme, including someone who already possesses a CCT in anaesthesia.
The post offers the opportunity to develop and increase anaesthetic experience in anaesthesia for the major trauma patient, prior to taking up a consultant post.
The level of supervision will be tailored to the fellow's prior experience with the ultimate aim of independent practice with distant supervision, so to work at junior consultant level with senior consultant support. The fellow would participate in a non-resident on call rota on a 1:8 frequency.

Applicants must be registered with the GMC with a current licence to practice at time of commencement.

Applications from job seekers who require skilled worker sponsorship to work in the UK are welcome and will be considered alongside all other applications. For further information please visit the UK Visas and Immigration website.

Adult dependants (over 18 years old) will also be subject to this requirement.
