We are very excited to be able to offer a unique career opportunity that will facilitate direct access into the Podiatry Musculoskeletal specialism. This is an opportunity to begin developing your MSK career at the earliest possible juncture.
Whilst we acknowledge core Podiatry skills are essential and they underpin clinical practice, access to MSK posts can often be unnecessarily protracted due to typical career progression pathways. Here at ABUHB we are set to turn those historical pathways on their head.
This is an MSK development post in its purest form, suitable for new graduates and experienced band 5 Podiatrists alike. Your level of experience and demonstrable skills developed working as a band 5 within the NHS will depend what percentage of your week is spent in core services, honing those important core skills and what percentage you will spend working in MSK. This is your very own customised journey into the field of MSK.
The ultimate goal is to be fully integrated into the MSK team with fuelled ambitions and aspirations to climb our workforce ladder as far as you dare
