Orthopaedic Locum Consultant in Spinal Surgery

Locum Consultant

At NNUH it is our privilege to provide healthcare to over one million people across Norfolk and surrounding areas. Our vision is to ‘provide the best care for every patient’, and if this inspires you and you share our values, we really want you to join our team. 

NNUH is currently the busiest Trauma Unit in the East of England caring for almost 850 trauma patients annually many with complex care needs. We are enhancing our urgent and emergency care specialist services for patients with significant injuries as a result of trauma and have an ambition to become a Major Trauma Centre.

Our values support our vision and guide the behaviour of everything we do, these are:

People-focused

We look after the needs of our patients, carers and colleagues, to provide a safe and caring experience for all.

Respect

We act with care, compassion and kindness and value others’ diverse needs.

Integrity

We take an honest, open and ethical approach to everything we do.

Dedication

We work as one team and support each other to maintain the highest professional standards.

Excellence

We continuously learn and improve to achieve the best outcomes for our patients and our hospital. 

Wish you were here? So do we.


We want all our staff to achieve a balance between work and personal life and understand how important flexible working can be.  We welcome applications on a full or part time basis, various shift patterns and hybrid working, where roles allow.


At the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (NNUH), we know the benefits diversity can bring to our organisation such as creativity, innovation and compassion. All of which have a direct impact towards our staff and patient experience. We are committed to being a Hospital for All – being equitable and inclusive, and a place where all feel a sense of belonging. We therefore particularly encourage and welcome applications from candidates who are underrepresented in NNUH’s workforce. These include people from Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnic backgrounds, people with diverse abilities and people within the LGBT+ community.

Trosolwg o'r swydd

Applications are invited for a fellowship-trained fixed-term 12 month full-time Locum Consultant post in Trauma & Orthopaedic Spinal Surgery. The successful candidate will have a major interest in Spinal surgery with fellowship training in complex deformity and spinal trauma. The post arises due to increasing volumes of complex spine conditions being treated at The Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.

A candidate who is unable for personal reasons to undertake the duties of a whole-time post will receive equal consideration. If such a candidate is appointed the job content will be modified as appropriate in consultation with consultant colleagues and local management.

We welcome all applications irrespective of age, disability, gender, sexual orientation, race or religion. Additionally, people with disabilities will be offered an interview providing they meet the minimum criteria for the post. The Trust operates job share and flexible working.

Prif ddyletswyddau'r swydd

The appointee would be joining the Norwich Spinal Unit, within the Orthopaedic Department, and would be expected to participate in a tertiary spinal on-call service covering spoke hospitals on a Category A 1 in 6 basis, with no additional commitment to the general orthopaedic trauma on-call. There will be a commitment to sessions at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Kings Lynn (QEHKL) and potentially the James Paget University Hospital (JPUH) in Great Yarmouth in a hub and spoke model. Whilst it is anticipated that lists at both QEHKL and JPUH will be for day-case patients, there are named consultants in both hospitals who provide part time cover for any patients requiring admission & patients requiring further interventions emergently are transferred to NNUH.

The trust supports the principle of mentoring for all new consultants and has plans to formally incorporate this into Trust policy in the near future.

The appointment is to the Trust, not to specific hospitals.

All consultants, including the appointee, will be expected to be involved in implementing the Trust’s Clinical Governance programme. This includes active participation in clinical audit, quality, clinical guidelines/pathways, professional development, appraisal and risk management.
