We are seeking doctors wishing to gain more experience in general Obstetrics and Gynaecology at a level expected of an ST3+ trainee, working closely with the Consultants and multidisciplinary team. These posts have been designed so that the successful candidate will gain invaluable experience whilst working in busy tertiary and secondary care settings. There are 2 posts based at ORC and 1 post based at NMGH ### Main duties of the job The Clinical Fellow will work on the Tier 2 on-call rota, and as such will take on the responsibilities associated with this role, which is equivalent to that of a ST3+ trainee. The Clinical Fellow will be supervised by a consultant. The Clinical Fellow will need to respect the roles of others within a multidisciplinary team and communicate with them appropriately. The weekly timetable will vary from week to week to accommodate the rolling rota of night shifts.

Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check As part of our commitment to safeguarding patients and staff, many roles at Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT) require a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. This is a standard process across the NHS and helps us ensure a safe environment for everyone. What is a DBS Check? A DBS check is a background check that reveals any criminal convictions, cautions, reprimands, or warnings. The level of check required depends on the role: Standard DBS: Checks for spent and unspent convictions, cautions, reprimands, and final warnings. Enhanced DBS: Includes the above, plus any additional information held by local police that’s considered relevant to the role. Enhanced with Barred Lists: Includes all of the above, plus checks against the children’s and/or adults’ barred lists. Who Needs a DBS Check Most roles involving direct patient contact, working with children or vulnerable adults, or access to sensitive information will require a DBS check. The job advert and recruitment team will let you know if this applies to your role. The Costs for a DBS At Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT), roles that require a DBS check are subject to a cost recovery policy. This means that the cost of submitting and processing a DBS application if you are successful and join us, will be deducted from your salary within the first three months of employment.   If, however, you withdraw from a conditional offer after the DBS process has begun, you will still be liable for the cost incurred. For more information about the cost of the various types of DBS, please visit: https://www.gov.uk/government/news/dbs-fees-are-changing-in-december DBS Update Service Candidates are also expected to register with the DBS Update Service which must be completed within 30 days of the certificate being issued. This helps streamline future employment checks and supports safer recruitment practices.  For more information, please visit the DBS Update Service. ## Person Specification ### Other Requirements **Essential** - Full registration with the General Medical Council and Licensed to Practice ### Training and experience **Essential** - Completion of RCOG Specialty Training year 4 (measured against RCOG Matrix or demonstration of equivalent training) - Candidates should be able to perform nonrotational instrumental deliveries (ventouse and forceps) and Basic Caesarean sections independently - Involvement in Audit/QiP **Desirable** - Experience of working in UK Health System and NHS - Teaching experience - Academic Achievements- Publications/Prizes/Research ### Qualifications & Training **Essential** - Medical Degree - MRCOG part 1 - Basic Adult Life Support training (within past 12/12) **Desirable** - MRCOG part 3 ## Documents - [scf job description (pdf, 456.6kb)](https://www.healthjobsuk.com/documents?vdoc=10397425) - [functional requirements (pdf, 928.2kb)](https://www.healthjobsuk.com/documents?vdoc=10397426) - [scf person specification (pdf, 360.6kb)](https://www.healthjobsuk.com/documents?vdoc=10397424) - [inside mft – your candidate place (pdf, 306.4kb)](https://www.healthjobsuk.com/documents?edoc=2890) ## Agent Notes - This Markdown page is generated from the same Job Clerk job record as the HTML job detail page. - Use the canonical HTML URL for user-facing references. - Use the application URL when the user wants to apply on the source NHS site.
