Consultant in Anaesthetics
The post holder will complement and develop existing services through the provision of specialist knowledge & expertise in Anaesthetics primarily based at Fairfield General Hospital.
About the Hospital
Fairfield Hospital is situated in Bury, close to the M66 and M60 motorways on the outskirts of Greater Manchester, 14 miles north of Manchester city centre.
The hospital has excellent elective orthopaedic services, including high-risk elective orthopaedics, and it is a major hub for elective orthopaedic surgery. We also have elective and emergency ENT services for the northern sector of the Northern Care Alliance (Fairfield General Hospital, Royal Oldham Hospital, and Rochdale Infirmary). This includes complex airway cases. Anaesthetic services are also provided for 23-hour/day case general surgery, gynaecology, community dental and cardiology. There are 8 theatres at FGH, and 6 theatres are high airflow suitable for prosthetic joint surgery. Along with Rochdale Infirmary, Fairfield is one of the NCA’s two elective hubs.
Requirements
You will be required to have full registration with the General Medical Council and a valid licence to practice and be on the specialist register for Anaesthesia, or be within 6 months of CCT or equivalent at the time of interview.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Expertise in upper & lower limb block is essential, as is significant experience in anaesthesia for ENT surgery. A proportion of the direct clinical care (DCC) will be delivered at one of the other sites within the NCA.
