Job overview

University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust is delighted to offer a fantastic opportunity to work with us.

Please see below for detailed job description of the role.

Main duties of the job

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join our established and inclusive multidisciplinary team caring for children and young people with a wide range of endocrine disorders. We are a supportive team and are keen to encourage development and educational opportunities.

Southampton Children’s Hospital is a major centre for specialist paediatric endocrine services across the south of England providing acute specialist care to our local population as well as a wide geographical area across HIOW and beyond including Dorchester, Frimley and the Channel Islands. We also provide a range of subspecialist services including DSD, bone, genetics, late effects and tertiary obesity.

There are currently 4 consultants and 2.6 WTE specialist nurses within the team as well as junior doctors in general and specialty training. The team works closely with other specialty services to provide care for children who are inpatients, outpatients and admitted for day case investigations. Additionally we provide advice, support and education for patients and staff in other hospitals across the region as part of a regional Wessex Endocrine Network. 

The MDT works very effectively, with each member’s views and contributions valued and respected. We are a pro-active and dynamic team providing a high standard of care. You will join the current team who will support you to develop your knowledge and experience in paediatric endocrinology.

Working for our organisation

University Hospital Southampton is one of England's largest acute teaching Trusts, offering a wide range of learning and development opportunities to support your career aspirations.

Located on the south coast with an international airport and direct rail links to London, Southampton offers an ideal setting to live and work, with the New Forest, South Downs and Jurassic Coast. 

We believe that using technology wisely shows strong time management and commitment to innovation. However, personalizing your recruitment application to highlight your unique skills and experiences is crucial. Relying too heavily on generic, AI-generated content instead of drawing from your own strengths and accomplishments may lead to your application being rejected if multiple candidates present identical or similar information.

At UHS we’re committed to providing a flexible working environment where possible. Whether you are balancing family, study, or your wellbeing with your career, we want to support you so you can help our patients.

At UHS, we proudly champion individuality, recognizing that outstanding care is only possible with a diverse, inclusive team. We’re committed to creating an anti-racist, anti-discriminatory environment where everyone feels valued, safe, and empowered to make a meaningful impact in our communities. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds, identities, and experiences to join us in building a healthcare community where everyone can belong, thrive, and contribute.
