Locum Consultant in Emergency Medicine

We are looking to recruit an enthusiastic consultant to work in the Emergency Department at University Hospital Southampton (UHS). As part of our team, you will work collaboratively with colleagues, helping to deliver excellent services and ensuring the highest standards of patient care.

University Hospital Southampton is a major teaching centre for the University of Southampton offering opportunities for undergraduate and postgraduate teaching and excellent facilities for research and clinical care. It is also the regional Major Trauma Centre with neurosurgery and cardiothoracics on site.

Here at UHS, we are passionate about career development. Emergency medicine allows you to use a huge range of clinical skills to assess and prioritise patients. We believe there is no better environment for you to thrive.

You will be working alongside experienced colleagues in both adult and paediatric ED, all with a wide range of interests including education, prehospital medicine, simulation, quality improvement, trauma, and critical care. Development of portfolio careers is encouraged, and individuals' skills and interests nurtured.

You will be joining a strong team of Emergency Care Consultants, Associate Specialists and Consultant Paediatric Emergency Physicians.

The ED medical team is complemented by an experienced nursing team including a Consultant Nurse as well as a team of ACPs and ENPs.

As one of the largest acute teaching Trusts in England, we offer learning and development opportunities to help you achieve the career you aspire to. UHS is rated 'Good' by the CQC and in the latest national NHS Staff Survey, we were in the top 10 acute trusts for staff engagement and for staff recommending the hospital as a place to work or receive care.

We support flexible working and will consider requests taking into account the needs of the service. UHS employees are able to access a range of NHS discounts, are entitled to a minimum of 35 days paid holiday (pro rata), and we offer a generous pension scheme.

Southampton is an attractive place to live and work situated on the south coast, with an international airport and direct trains to London. The New Forest National Park and beaches of the Jurassic coast are also right on our doorstep. The city offers living costs 30% lower than London and 17 schools rated outstanding by Ofsted.

We believe that using technology wisely shows strong time management and commitment to innovation. However, personalising your recruitment application to highlight your unique skills and experiences is crucial. Relying too heavily on generic, AI-generated content instead of drawing from your own strengths and accomplishments may lead to your application being rejected if multiple candidates present identical or similar information.
