What you will drive

Hours: UK-Med Register role, no guarantee of any work, but if deployed work will be full-time.

Remuneration: GBP £4,000 – GBP £5,000 Gross per month (Dependent on the level of role & the adversity of the context)

Duration: Register members who deploy will be offered fixed-term contracts. The duration will depend on the requirements of the response but most responses are between 4 and 12 weeks

Location: Internationally and/or to any of the UK-Med responses.

Are you a licensed medical doctor interested in gaining experience and knowledge in the humanitarian field, particularly in providing emergency medical care?

UK-Med is a frontline medical aid charity. Born of the British National Health Service, we’ve been working for over 30 years towards a world where everyone has the healthcare they need when crises or disasters hit.

We are seeking Medical Doctors specializing in paediatrics who are enthusiastic about expanding their knowledge and skills within a humanitarian environment. You will need to be available for international travel and deployment on short notice, with a minimum commitment of 4-6 weeks (longer availability is highly desirable). Your primary role will be to support the healthcare needs of both host and internally displaced persons.

Our ideal candidates will be fully licensed and experienced Medical Doctors with a strong background in paediatrics. You should have extensive experience working in Emergency Departments, providing emergency medical care to patients, particularly children, with a wide range of medical conditions.

To be considered for this role, you must hold a current medical license and be able to demonstrate your current and unconditional membership in a suitable registering organization, along with specific qualifications and professional registrations in Paediatric Medicine.

You will be determined, high performing, compassionate and collaborative, as well as being committed to learning and supporting others to learn. Language skills will be an advantage. We offer excellent learning opportunities and occasional opportunities to work in international humanitarian responses, should you decide to join our Register at a later date.
