## Job Content

### Job overview

Buckinghamshire Healthcare has a Junior Clinical Fellow post available for 12 months Fixed Term starting 05/08/2026 until 03/08/2027, based at Stoke Mandeville Hospital, Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire.   This post is designed to support post FY2 grade Resident Doctors who wish to continue clinical work alongside non-clinical paid time, enabling flexibility, job stability and satisfaction.   Applicants ideally would have completed up to their FY2 training and have decided on Medicine as their preferred career direction. This is suitable for applicants who may be looking to explore a particular speciality further.

We're keen to recruit a team of outstanding clinicians to work towards our vision of providing outstanding care, healthy communities and a great place to work at BHT.  All applicants MUST hold a full GMC registration with a Licence to Practice in the UK.   We anticipate that this role will be popular, therefore this advert may close sooner than the advised closing date. We welcome and encourage interested applicants to apply early.

### Main duties of the job

The post-holder will work flexibly to provide patient care across the medical wards and medical take, including evening and weekend work where required. Flexibility from both the post-holder and the Trust will be required, with a rota being provided at a minimum 6 weeks in advance.

The post is designed to support the medical team, ensuring the Division can provide safe staffing ratios on all its wards. This may include both the acute medical take and our inpatient medical wards.  For more details on this role, please review the attached job description and person specification attached to this role.

### Detailed job description and main responsibilities

This is a great post for those wishing to take some time out after FY2 and want flexibility, stability, training, supervision, a study budget and GMC revalidation, but do not yet want to commit to a training programme. It also suits those who want to take some time out of a formal training programme where they have dedicated non-clinical time.

This post is based on the success of the ‘Junior Clinical Fellow’ programme at Brighton & Sussex University Hospitals, which won an RCEM quality improvement prize and HSJ highly commended prize in the Workforce category and was shortlisted for the BMJ innovation prize. The programme is used as an example of good working practice by NHS Improvement, HEE (Health Education England).

While this post is not recognised for training, the experience of other Trusts with similar posts suggests that trainees will find this post useful for their medical education, clinical experience and career progression. It offers candidates the ability to build a portfolio prior to specialty application, or to spend time in a chosen speciality prior to application.
