Job summary
In August 2025, NHS England brought out the 10-point plan to improve the working lives of resident doctors. In line with this I was appointed to be the Resident Doctor Peer Lead to represent resident doctors within HIOWH Trust and work closely with the Chief Medical Officer Team. It has been an exciting opportunity to start embedding the 10 point plan within the trust and represent you all in making things better for all of us. As I approach starting work in a local consultant post in the summer, I would now like to support handing over the RDPL role to another resident.
We are therefore inviting Resident Doctors to provide an expression of interest for a 12-month fixed term post as the Resident Doctor Peer Lead (RDPL). There will also be a handover period where I can guide and support the future RDPL for the role.
Applicants will need to have agreement from their Educational Supervisor, Named Clinical Supervisor and the TPD. For more detail and context on the positions, please see the attached role description.
To express an interest, or if you would like to discuss the role, please email Dr Faiza Hussain or Dr Jeremy Rowland (Deputy CMO). The deadline for this is 15th May 2026.
