Job Description: Senior Plastic Surgery Trainee
The post is aimed at a Senior Plastic Surgery trainee. These do not carry SAC or college approval for training at present and would therefore suit a post CCT or equivalent individual. (Previous fellows have been able to have part of the fellowship counted as Out of Program Training, after necessary SAC /deanery approval). The post will be based at the Department of Burns & Plastic Surgery, at the City Hospital and Queens Medical Centre. The advertised post is for 12 months starting February 2027 (or earlier).
Responsibilities
The micro fellow timetable is quite flexible to accommodate the fellow needs but also the departmental needs. The post holder will be allocated to assist and will gain training in microsurgical reconstruction 2-3 days of the week. One day will be given to other duties within the department including trauma or covering absence of colleagues if necessary. As a senior trainee it will be expected that help will be given to junior trainees in oncological reconstructions as well as coordinating trauma and other cases. One day each week (or 2 half days) could be made available for the individual to attend cosmetic surgery lists within the private sector if they wish. This will be outside of the hours for this post.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.
