Job summary
We are looking to recruit to the post of Vascular Surgery Training Programme Director. This post will cover trainees based at both the Wessex and Thames Valley Schools but will be based at Wessex.
All applicants applying for this post must already work within Vascular Surgery in a Thames Valley or Wessex Trust.
This role is for 1 hour per week and will be £2500 per annum.
The role of Training Programme Director is to work with and support the Head of School in leading the delivery of a wide range of functions, aligned to the NHS England mandate.
NHSE is expected to cease as a separate entity on 30/09/2026 with the merger into DHSC, therefore extensions and new appointments can only be guaranteed up until this date. We anticipate educator roles being required beyond this point and further arrangements to be made once the new structure becomes clearer. We recognise this will create some uncertainty and will do our best to keep any potentially impacted informed of future plans as they come available.

The Training Programme Director will focus upon improvement of learner supervision, assessment and experience, engagement of faculty and ensuring effective educational outcomes, both now and in the future.
