Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust are seeking to appoint experienced Anaesthesia and Critical Care doctors to a comprehensive Cardiac Fellowship programme across both the Wythenshawe Hospital and Oxford Road sites.

Please note: MFT is not a right to work sponsoring organisation for Tier 5. Should a candidate require Tier 5 sponsorship, they must apply through the Academy of Royal College via the MTI Scheme.

Please note: since April 2021, the Trust moved to a locally agreed contract for all locally employed doctors, that mirrors the terms and conditions of service for doctors in training (2contract). This means the grade for the position has a static salary and no prior experience will be considered.
