The experience gained will be beneficial to trainees wishing to pursue a wide variety of career aims.
The applicant should be post foundation training or equivalent. Prior experience of the UK healthcare system is desirable, and GMC registration is essential (unless applying for sponsorship).
Successful candidates for this post will be scored at interview and offered in turn, depending on availability their first choice of rotation.
