We are active members of our Primary Care network. We work with people experiencing homelessness and there are opportunities to develop skills working to tackle health inequalities.

We are looking for four to six clinical sessions (though have flexibility for the right applicant). We are an active training practice with GP registrars and have a strong history of delivering post-graduate medical education. There are opportunities to develop teaching skills with supervision from experienced educators - we have medical (3B, student selected component) students attached to the practice.

We are a research active practice and interested applicants would have opportunities to develop research skills. We have strong links with the Deep End network of practices, serving the most socioeconomically deprived areas of Yorkshire and the Humber and who are passionate about tackling health inequity. This gives opportunities for further professional development.

We would support early career GPs to access training opportunities including Trailblazer or follow other interests you may bring to the post.
