Exciting opportunity at an exciting time – In East Sussex we have progressed with our vision of working as a team of consultants across our locality with opportunities of extended peer support and opportunities of internal rotating of duties.
Across East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust (2 acute hospitals – Eastbourne DGH and Conquest), Brighton and Sussex Medical School (BSMS) and St Michael’s and St Wilfrid’s Hospices we are currently a team of 8 consultants, and we now have a vacancy to become 1 of 9.

Why join us?: great location by the sea with lots of opportunities for all ages including those with new families, very supportive consultant group, excellent and friendly Hospice multi-disciplinary team. Low frequency of on call (second on is 1 in 10 across 3 Hospices). Opportunities to develop in any area of interest (education, clinical governance, leadership, research). AND…. St Michael’s Hospice has announced the building of a new hospice in the next seven years, so great opportunity to influence the future caring environment we will all work from and in.
At St Michael’s Hospice we offer a friendly, team orientated work environment – a good pension scheme with the option to continue any existing NHS pension scheme membership, an Employee Assistance Programme, Benenden Healthcare, up to 29 days annual leave plus bank holidays, subsidised employee meals and free refreshments, free parking, supportive supervision and a proactive Education Department to support with your development.
