Description
Applications are invited for a fixed term Clinical Fellow (ST6+) in Endo-Urology post based at the Department of Urology, Aberdeen Royal Infirmary, Scotland. The post is available from August 2026 to August 2027.
The post is suitable for candidates who have experience in Urology overseas or within the UK, and wish to progress their career further with a view to portfolio development, or overseas candidates who wish to expand their training and acquire experience of working in a high-volume tertiary referral unit in the UK.
The fellowship will include a training programme in Urological Surgery similar to that delivered to our type 1 trainees within the department. This will be tailored to the individual, but will primarily aim to expose them to a whole range of Endo-Urology procedures (including Ureteroscopy, PCNL, Endoscopic Cystolithotripsy, ESWL and HOLEP) to develop a subspecialty interest in Endo-Urology. The candidate will work with a team of 3 Endo-Urology consultants, a specialist uro-radiologist, a stone specialist nurse and 3 radiographers. The team runs a weekly stone MDT meeting with a well-streamlined service.
The candidate will be encouraged and supported to apply through the portfolio route for type 2 trainees to achieve specialist registration. Trainees will have access to invested trainers and training opportunities to give them Workplace Based Assessments to augment their application process. They will also be given dedicated time for audit, quality assurance and quality improvement projects and research, as this is an integral part of the portfolio process.
The post-holder will also participate in the Urology middle grade on-call rota (1:8) on an emergency/elective split. It would be expected that the candidate would work closely with the Health Services Research Unit and Aberdeen Academic Urology to increase their academic portfolio in the dedicated time given for this purpose. Aberdeen has an excellent reputation for clinical training and research, and as this is a professorial unit, we would encourage the candidate to undertake some research culminating in peer-reviewed publications while in post.
Candidates must possess MBChB/MBBS and MRCS (or equivalent). Specialist qualifications (e.g. FRCS Urology, FEBU or equivalent) are desirable, but exam support can be given if required including study leave for preparatory courses.
Full registration with a licence to practise with the GMC is required. (licence to practise must be in place prior to starting in post). For more information visit
This post does not have educational approval from the Postgraduate Dean and will not be recognised for training.
Apply for this post by visiting and search for the above Ref No. Closing date 1st May 2026.
Please note that this post may close early due to volume of applications.
