SOC 2211 is an eligible occupation, but we classified this role with low confidence (52% match). If the code is right — and The Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is a licensed sponsor — it should qualify, but double-check the occupation eligibility rules against the actual role.
About the role
We are delighted to be able to offer an opportunity for a highly motivated ambitious individual to join a well- integrated team.
The post will commence on 01/11/2026 for a fixed 12 month contract. The post is for 30 hours per week with no on-call.
This role is an excellent opportunity for an FY2-level doctor seeking to gain valuable experience in Trauma and Orthopaedics, particularly as a first NHS post. The successful candidate will be appointed to a 12-month fixed-term contract and will primarily provide ward-based care for patients on the trauma ward, working as part of a supportive multidisciplinary team. In addition to developing core skills in the management of acute orthopaedic and trauma patients, there will be opportunities to attend outpatient clinics and operating theatre sessions to enhance clinical knowledge and gain exposure to a broad range of orthopaedic conditions and procedures. This post is particularly suitable for doctors at FY2 level and for international medical graduates seeking their first NHS experience within a supportive learning environment.
Main duties of the job
You will be an active part of the orthopaedic rota at RVI and work closely with the trauma team. Clinical and research opportunities are available.
