Consultant in Resp & Gen Medicine / Honorary Senior Clinical Lecturer

at  North Cumbria Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust

It is an exciting time to join North Cumbria Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust (NCIC) as we work with the University of Cumbria and Imperial College London to launch the Pears Cumbria School of Medicine (PCSM) in 2025. Our vision is to be a leading organisation for medical education and training.
We are seeking to recruit a Consultant in Respiratory and General Medicine and Honorary Senior Clinical Lecturer, who will embed themselves as a practising clinician at NCIC, but also spend part of their time working collaboratively to help develop and eventually deliver teaching in Respiratory Medicine at PCSM.
The successful candidate will be encouraged to develop a special interest to complement the other members of the department and will participate in the provision of Respiratory services to the population of North Cumbria. This is an opportunity to join an organisation in which Clinicians are at the forefront of management. We would welcome applications from individuals seeking full or part time hours.
To be successful you will have the skills, energy and enthusiasm to drive the change and innovation to help us deliver the best possible care, and contribute to a culture which values professional excellence and enables our clinicians to be the best they can be.
This is a joint post between NCIC and PCSM, which will enable the postholder to develop a career both in medical education alongside clinical practice.
At PCSM, you will be working as the Subject Lead for Respiratory, developing and delivering the curriculum, from the anatomy, pathophysiology and clinical skills to the design of suitable clinical placements across the Cumbria region.
The post involves out-patient and in-patient duties and a regular commitment to both in-reach into the medical admissions unit and on-call for general medicine. We would particularly welcome applicants with a special interest in sleep, asthma or pleural diseases, though any specialist interest would be welcomed and supported.
At NCIC, we have an ambition to deliver outstanding hospital and health services to half a million people. Established on 1st October 2019, the Trust is creating a centre of excellence in providing rural and remote healthcare and provides a wide range of community and acute services throughout north Cumbria and beyond. We’re responsible for delivering over 70 services across 15 main locations and we employ more than 6,500 members of staff.

Quality and safety at the heart
A positive patient experience every time
A great place to work
Managing our money well
As an organisation we are serious about supporting a diverse workforce that reflects our local community and are very much focused on being an inclusive and compassionate place to work.
Relocation package maybe available to successful candidates.
