Chief Registrar

The chief registrar role will suit trainees who:

• Want to learn about leadership and gain senior leadership experience
• Are comfortable working in uncertain environments and across traditional boundaries
• Relish the opportunity to develop their own ideas and initiatives
• Are committed to and passionate about improving the NHS.
The chief registrar will be mentored by a senior clinical leader within the organisation and gain a unique insight into NHS leadership and management processes, as well as deeper knowledge of NHS structures and stakeholders. The chief registrar will be expected to attend modules delivered as part of the RCP's bespoke development programme, which will cover, for example, change management, team culture and development, quality improvement, leadership, influencing and personal resilience.

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic and motivated senior doctor in training (ST4 and above or equivalent) with an interest in leadership, management and quality improvement to take up the role as a chief registrar. Applications are open to both full time and less than full time trainees.
