Critical Care Fellow in London

Permanent Full Time and Part Time roles available.

Interview Dates: 24/2/26 and 4/3/26.

The hospital is London’s leading charitable hospital, and uniquely its business model is that all are used to part fund an NHS commissioned hospice, St John’s Hospice, which is an integral part of the hospital’s estate. St John’s Hospice provides high quality, holistic care to those with life‑limiting illnesses and their families across North London, all completely free of charge.

Located in leafy St John’s Wood on the Jubilee line, minutes from Central London, our luxury private Hospital has an international reputation for providing the highest quality of care to patients and is unique in that all profits fund our onsite Hospice, St John’s. The hospital has 60 inpatient beds, including 4 HDU beds, plus separate day case adult and Paediatric wards. The hospital admits a mixture of medical and surgical patients. There are 6 operating theatres, hosting for a wide range of surgical specialties, but excluding neurosurgery and cardiac. There are elective theatre lists running 6 days a week, plus a 24/7 on‑call emergency theatre team. At the front of the hospital there is an Urgent Care Centre.

What would be my responsibilities as a Critical Care Fellow?

• Providing resident medical cover for the 4‑bed HDU, ensuring continuous, safe, and effective care for adult patients.
• Acting as one of two resident doctors on site 24/7, working alongside the ward RMO to maintain high‑quality clinical support across the hospital.
• Delivering assessment, monitoring, and management of acutely unwell adult patients, escalating appropriately to the patient’s primary consultant or Consultant Anaesthetist.
• Working under the supervision of the on‑call ICU Consultant, seeking guidance when required and contributing to safe clinical decision‑making.
• Supporting paediatric activity when relevant, particularly where experience in paediatric anaesthesia or critical care is beneficial, while recognising that a dedicated Paediatric Anaesthetic Registrar provides primary cover.
• Collaborating effectively with multidisciplinary teams, including surgeons, anaesthetists, paediatricians, and nursing staff, to ensure coordinated patient care.
• Contributing to rota stability and service continuity, supporting an annualised rota designed to maximise transparency and flexibility.
• Engaging in ongoing professional development and training, maintaining high clinical standards and supporting the hospital’s commitment to continuous improvement.

Am I the right person for this role?

• You have previous clinical experience within the UK, ensuring familiarity with local standards, systems, and expectations.
• You hold appropriate GMC registration, with the qualifications required to practice safely and independently.
• You possess strong critical care or anaesthetic skills, with the confidence to manage acutely unwell adult patients.
• You demonstrate a motivated, professional, and team‑focused attitude, suited to a small but highly skilled resident medical team.
• You value flexibility in working patterns, and are willing to discuss preferred weekly hours within an annualised rota structure.
• You are committed to delivering high‑quality patient care, and to ongoing learning, development, and clinical excellence.
