## Job Content

### Job overview

We are looking for an enthusiastic, motivated and hardworking surgeon for the position of Post-CCT Fellow in the Specialist Hip & Knee Unit.

We are recruiting for:

1x 12 month post April 2027 – April 2028

A curriculum vitae will be required with the application form.

### Main duties of the job

The Specialist Hip & Knee Unit offers an exceptional fellowship opportunity for surgeons seeking advanced training in orthopaedic procedures. Led by a team of 12 substantive consultants, the fellowship provides comprehensive exposure to complex hip and knee arthroplasty, with unique flexibility for candidates to tailor their experience towards either arthroplasty, hip surgery or knee surgery.

The Fellow’s post will provide exposure to all aspects of the management of patients with primary and revision hip and knee arthroplasty and complex limb reconstruction. There will be ample opportunity to assist and gain experience with the full range of extremity and pelvic surgical cases. Attendance at arthroplasty MDT meetings is expected. The Fellow will be allocated to one of the sub teams within the unit and have the opportunity to rotate at 6 months.

The Fellow will attend fixed outpatient clinics and operating lists. There will be opportunities to sit in clinic with the consultants as a learning experience as well as see patients independently. Likewise, in theatre, there will be opportunities to assist with complex surgical procedures as well as undertake surgery as the lead surgeon. As the fellow gains in experience they will be able to work more and more independently over time. There will be supervised research sessions. The post holder will be expected to present research at national and international meetings.

### Detailed job description and main responsibilities

Successful candidates will be fully integrated into our multidisciplinary team, engaging in patient care across ward, outpatient, and theatre settings, with opportunities for supervised and independent operating based on individual competency.

The fellowship emphasizes academic and professional development, with dedicated research time, weekly educational meetings, and an expectation of producing a peer-reviewed publication or international presentation. Ideal for surgeons with post-CCT fellowship experience, our program promises a rigorous, supportive environment for advancing specialist orthopaedic skills in hip and knee surgery.
