You will provide specialist knowledge and skills in Theatre and Anaesthetic practice and lead the continuing development of this area through research and clinical effectiveness, initiating and implementing change.
You will assist in the smooth functioning of the Operating Department through liaison with other Theatres, Recovery rooms, wards, and hospital departments.
You will promote a safe and attractive environment, acting as a role model and encouraging learning and the development of new ideas.
You will take responsibility for the management of the theatre teams/department in the absence of the unit/suite manager.
