### Job overview

University Hospitals of Derby and Burton NHS Foundation Trust is looking to recruit a Vascular Consultant Surgeon.

The Vascular department provides a full range of inpatient elective & non-elective operating services, outpatient clinics and day case sessions.  Major, arterial, vascular work is delivered at the Derby site with access to a new Hybrid suite. Vascular surgeons have elective commitments at satellite hospitals and / or outreach facilities and this post too would be expected to work cross sites.

In September 2022, a state-of-the-art Hybrid theatre suite was opened at our Royal Derby Hospital site. The £2.9 million theatre houses state-of-the-art equipment which allows clinicians to carry out sophisticated, complex vascular and cardiology procedures. The hybrid theatre will enhance patient care for patients undergoing major vascular elective and emergency procedures.

### Main duties of the job

The post will be based across sites, delivering the full range of outpatient and inpatient services, both on site and at outreach clinics.  The post holder will also provide emergency vascular surgery as part of a 1:8 consultant on-call rota.

### Detailed job description and main responsibilities

The post holder will have a flexible job plan including dedicated outpatient clinics at outreach sites, inpatient theatre sessions, with access to our new hybrid operating suite and day case sessions.
