Specialist Dietitian (Gastroenterology)

This is an exciting opportunity to join our team as a gastroenterology dietitian.

The adult gastroenterology dietetic team consists of eight dietitians (band 6 and 7) and one dietetic assistant. The team is part of the wider adult acute dietetic team based at Southampton General Hospital. You will be working in a supportive and friendly team covering a range of gastro specialities including IBD, IBS, coeliac, gut dysmotility and DGBI in inpatient and outpatient settings. There are regular internal CPD sessions, gastro MDT education meetings and the opportunity to engage in service evaluation and improvement. As a regional centre for gastroenterology, research is ongoing to ensure we are up to date and providing the best service.

The department of dietetics and speech and language therapy employs approximately 130 staff, with clinical experts working in a range of specialties, providing acute and community services in adults and paediatrics., As one of the largest acute teaching Trusts in England, we offer learning and development opportunities to help you achieve the career you aspire to. UHS is rated 'Good' by the CQC and in the latest national NHS Staff Survey, we were in the top 10 acute trusts for staff engagement and for staff recommending the hospital as a place to work or receive care.

We support flexible working and will consider requests taking into account the needs of the service. UHS employees are able to access a range of NHS discounts, are entitled to a minimum of 35 days paid holiday (pro rata), and we offer a generous pension scheme.

Southampton is an attractive place to live and work situated on the south coast, with an international airport and direct trains to London. The New Forest National Park and beaches of the Jurassic coast are also right on our doorstep. The city offers living costs 30% lower than London and 17 schools rated outstanding by Ofsted.

We believe that using technology wisely shows strong time management and commitment to innovation. However, personalising 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.
