Salisbury Medical Practice jobs

We are pleased to offer an exciting opportunity for a full‑time Trust Doctor (FY2 level) to join our ENT team at the Royal United Hospital Bath.

This 12‑month fixed‑term post provides an excellent opportunity to gain high‑quality ENT surgical and clinical experience within a supportive, well‑structured and friendly department. You will work alongside experienced consultants and multidisciplinary colleagues, with strong emphasis on learning, supervision and professional development.

The role is ideally suited to doctors looking to build skills, achieve key competencies and strengthen their portfolio in preparation for Core Surgical Training applications. The post includes participation in a 1:7 on‑call rota alongside F2 and Core Trainee colleagues, offering valuable out‑of‑hours experience.

Your duties will be primarily care of in-patients and the admission and primary care of emergency cases, including performance of surgical procedures. There will be opportunities to be supernumerary in elective subspecialty clinics or assist in and perform elective surgery according to learning objectives, previous experience and competencies. There is a training programme and regular audit and teaching sessions.

The RUH in Bath is a busy District General Hospital and previous SHOs have been able to significantly improve their surgical experience to enhance their logbooks.

We are proud to be part of BSW Hospitals Group - a formal partnership between the Royal United Hospitals Bath NHS Foundation Trust, Great Western Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and Salisbury NHS Foundation Trust. With a combined workforce of over 17, 600 colleagues, and budget of 1.6 billion the Group is united by a common purpose to deliver the best possible care to over 1 million people.

We are creating a health and care system that works with the people we care for, reducing the differences people currently face in access, experience and outcomes, improving the experience of our colleagues and tackling shared challenges like sustainability and finances. Every improvement we make across our Group will be guided by what creates the greatest benefit for our colleagues, our patients, our communities and our partners.

By working together, we make a real difference for our patients, each other, and our community. Every role matters in delivering the exceptional, person‑centred care we’re proud of.

We’re committed to a compassionate, inclusive culture where kindness is championed, differences are valued, and diversity makes us stronger.

We want to support you to thrive, taking your career to its full potential. We prioritise staff wellbeing – and yes, we even have a pool!

While undertaking clinical duties the fellow will be expected to work with the Department of ENT medical and nursing staff to manage the full range of patients attending the department. There is an expectation that the fellow will recognise the limitations of their practice and seek support from the middle grade and senior doctors to ensure safe patient management.

The Clinical aspect of the post is based at the Royal United Hospital, Bath, and is suitable for candidates who will already have at least 4 months’ ENT experience, who would like to gain further clinical experience. The post will enable the trainee to build on experience and obtain appropriate competencies, but the post is not recognised by the Deanery for training.

The Royal United Hospital has an excellent reputation for training in medical and surgical specialties, evidenced by the best results in the GMC training survey for an acute hospital. The department and the hospital provide a progressive and friendly atmosphere in which to work, and there is an active postgraduate teaching programme, in which you will be involved.

With the reduction in training numbers nationally, we envisage that many able doctors will seek an alternative training route in active departments such as the RUH, and we have already demonstrated a long-term commitment to training and career progression of our Trust appointed doctors.

The 7 substantive ENT Consultants and three SAS doctors all undertake a wide range of subspecialty surgery including head and neck, otology, rhinology and facial plastic surgery. The Teaching/Clinical Fellow will work as part of a clinical team led by a firm of consultants.
