LAS Specialty Registrar (CT4 /ST3+) in Anaesthetics

Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is seeking to appoint a LAS Specialty Registrar (CT4/ST4+ equivalent) in Anaesthesia, with a start date as soon as possible. The post is for a fixed term of 12 months (until 03 August 2027). Please note that this post does not attract a National Training Number (NTN).

The posts are based within the existing teams with access to departmental teaching and other developmental opportunities. Despite not being recognised as ‘training posts’ they allow doctors to improve the breadth and depth of their experience in Anaesthetics. We are encouraging those considering the CESR route to apply for this post, as we have had several fellows be successful in this process.

Full registration with the GMC with a licence to practise is required, and if the appointee does not hold right of residence in the UK sponsorship will be required.

Further vacancies that arise during the appointment process will be considered from this pool of interviewable candidates
