## Job Content

### Job overview

The Shrewsbury and Telford Hospitals NHS Trust (SaTH) are looking to appoint two Consultant in Diabetes, Endocrinology and General Internal Medicine to develop new and complement existing services presently being delivered to a high standard by a team of full time and part time consultants. The posts are subject to a collective job-planning exercise but attract 10 Programmed Activities per week. The post are new posts one based at Royal Shrewsbury Hospital and one based at Princess Royal Hospital, although it is a contractual requirement that all consultants newly appointed to the Trust must be prepared to work on either site.

### Main duties of the job

- To develop new and complement existing services in the provision of Diabetes, Endocrinology and General Medical Services.
- To undertake on-call medical duties in collaboration with Consultant Physician colleagues.
- To deliver high quality Diabetes, Endocrinology and Medical Services.
- To provide inpatient diabetes care and support ambulatory care.

### Detailed job description and main responsibilities

A formal job plan will be agreed between the successful candidate and their Clinical Director and consultant colleagues, on behalf of the Medical Director within 3 months of starting in post. A full-time job plan is based on a 10 PA working week. The job plan will be reviewed annually and is a prospective agreement that sets out the consultant's duties, responsibilities, and objectives for the coming year. It covers all aspects of a consultant’s professional practice including clinical work, teaching, research, education and managerial responsibilities. It will provide a clear schedule of commitments, both internal and external and will include personal objectives, detailing links to wider service improvements and trust strategic priorities.

For a full-time contract, the job plan will be divided on average per week (pro-rata for a part time post) as:

- 8.5 Programmed Activities (PAs) of Direct Clinical Care - includes clinical activity, clinically related activity and predictable and unpredictable emergency work.
- 1.5 Supporting Professional Activities (SPAs) - includes CPD, audit, teaching and research.

The allocation of PAs is reviewed and may be subject to adjustment when a further diary exercise is undertaken or if the service demands a review of the team job plan.
