General Anaesthesia Senior Clinical Fellow Posts
The Department of Anaesthesia at Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust is offering 6 to 12-month senior clinical fellow posts in general anaesthesia at Charing Cross Hospital. These posts are available from 4 November 2026. Start dates after this time will also be considered.
It is ideal for either Specialty Registrars approaching the end of their training, or an anaesthetist who has completed their training and is looking to round off their experience prior to securing a consultant post.
Requirements
Applicants are required to have fully completed the FRCA or equivalent qualification and have a minimum of 5 years’ experience in anaesthesia and intensive care in a structured training program.
Clinical Duties
The clinical duties would cover the Stage 2 and 3 (sub-specialties Airway and Neuro-anaesthesia available) curriculum of the Royal College of Anaesthesia (RCOA). Clinical fellows will have opportunities to undertake activities that enhance their non-clinical skills such as education, research, and quality improvement and publication preparation.
Out of hours, the post holder will cover emergency theatre work, cardiac arrest calls and the acute pain service. The rota follows a full shift pattern with prospective cover and is EWTD compliant.
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.
