Speciality Doctor Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery OMFS
This job is now closed
Job summary
The University Hospitals of Northamptonshire Group Oral and Maxillofacial Department are looking to appoint an enthusiastic SAS grade (Speciality Dr) colleague with Oral Surgery experience to join our vibrant OMFS team of 5 Consultant Maxillofacial Surgeons and 2 other experienced SAS Grade Oral surgeons. This is a 10PA post with option to increase to 12PA.
Main duties of the job
The appointee will be expected to undertake minor oral surgery procedures and routine Oral Surgery procedures under local and general anaesthetic, as well as autonomously run regular outpatient clinics. You should be able to work independently but there is senior support available, and we are also keen to support the professional development of applicants who may be undertaking such a role for the first time. There will be fixed clinical sessions but a degree of flexibility is essential.
Excitingly for this post we are offering trauma exposure for the successful candidate to develop their skills outside of routine oral surgery fields.
The post requires participation in the 1-in-6 2nd on call (middle tier) non-resident rota, which is fully supported by a non-resident consultant, and close supervision of junior 1st on call colleagues.
We are partnered with Kettering General Hospital which has a full Orthodontic service with whom we regularly interface to provide a full Orthognathic service in which Oral Surgery plays an active role, and the job plan may involve cross site work.
Teaching junior colleagues is important.
