We are seeking a substantive Consultant in Intensive Care Medicine (ICM) to join the RUH (Royal United Hospital) department. Single ICM and dual trained applicants are encouraged to apply, with accommodation of a second specialty possible and by negotiation.

The Department of Anaesthesia, ICM and Chronic Pain remains cohesive and focused on joint objectives, as well as being involved in numerous areas of work across the Trust. Candidates with an ability to continue this cross-specialty working and collaboration will be highly valued.
