Consultant Anaesthetist
We are looking for a candidate to join our team of anaesthetists working across our various sites to provide high-level anaesthetic provision.
Torbay Hospital has a reputation for having a friendly working environment, has excellent trainee feedback, and is a national innovator in many areas, including day surgery and peri-operative medicine.
We are one of the first departments in the country to have undergone and completed ACSA reaccreditation successfully, and the hospital is part of the HIP2 wave of major rebuild and refurbishment, which includes a new theatres build and will place a transformative digital environment at the heart of patient care.
Successful applicants will take part in the general on-call rota at Torbay, and as such, obstetric and paediatric anaesthetic skills are essential. Our on-call commitment has evolved to provide the highest quality consultant-delivered service while supporting a healthy work-life balance. General anaesthetists contribute to a 1 in 20 non-resident on-call rota.
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.
You will provide high-quality consultant-delivered care to all patients and provide clinical leadership and supervision to junior medical staff.
Why Work With Us
As an organisation, we value medical leadership, recognising this is key to delivering the best outcomes for our population.
We have invested in medical leaders and currently have a variety of leadership and educational opportunities in the organisation.
If you are interested in creating a varied job plan combining these roles with a clinical role, we would be happy to discuss these opportunities.
Outside of the hospital, the area offers a great lifestyle with beautiful countryside, from the stunning South Devon coastline with its sandy beaches and pebbled coves to the rugged peaks of Dartmoor and the rolling South Hams. Please see our attached video link for a taster of what work-life balance means in our department.
