£111.43k - £148.06k per annum
Full-time

Consultant in Infectious Diseases Dumfries & Galloway| Medacs Healthcare


Hospital Name: Dumfries & Galloway Royal Infirmary
Job Title: Consultant in Infectious Diseases
Location: West Of Scotland
Salary: £111,430 - £148,064 per annum
Contract Type: Permanent or FTC
Start Date: October 2026 or sooner for the right candidate

Help Shape the Future of Infectious Diseases in South West Scotland

Not every Consultant role offers the opportunity to influence how a service develops.

NHS Dumfries & Galloway is seeking an ambitious Consultant in Infectious Diseases to join a growing multidisciplinary team and play a key role in developing an integrated laboratory-to-bedside Infectious Diseases service. This is a newly created permanent post created as part of an exciting expansion of the service.

Working alongside Infectious Diseases, Microbiology, BBV, OPAT and Acute Medicine colleagues, you'll have the opportunity to develop a role that reflects your interests and expertise while helping shape the future direction of care across the region.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • Newly created Consultant post within an expanding Infectious Diseases service.
  • Opportunity to combine Infectious Diseases with Microbiology and/or Acute Medicine.
  • Flexible job planning with full-time, part-time and remote working options considered where appropriate.
  • Dedicated opportunities to pursue interests in leadership, governance, research, medical education and rural medicine.
  • Work within a highly cooperative environment supported by specialist nurses, pharmacists, microbiologists and trainee doctors.
  • Relocation support, accommodation assistance and visa sponsorship available

The Role

The service provides care across a broad and rewarding spectrum of Infectious Diseases, including:

  • HIV and Blood Borne Virus services
  • Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C management
  • Tuberculosis services
  • Outpatient Parenteral Antimicrobial Therapy (OPAT)
  • General Infectious Diseases clinics
  • Community and prison outreach services
  • Inpatient Infectious Diseases and General Medicine support

Successful candidates can choose to participate in the Microbiology on-call rota, Acute Medicine on-call rota, or both, depending on individual interests and experience.

What We're Looking For

Essential requirements include:

  • Primary Medical Qualification
  • Full GMC Registration with Specialist Registration (or within six months of obtaining CCT)
  • Appropriate Royal College Membership
  • Demonstrable experience within Infectious Diseases
  • Commitment to teaching, clinical governance, service development and quality improvement
  • Ability to work collaboratively within multidisciplinary teams

Life in Dumfries & Galloway

This is an opportunity to enjoy genuine work-life balance without compromising on professional development.

Based at the modern Dumfries & Galloway Royal Infirmary, you'll benefit from excellent facilities, strong links with major Infectious Diseases centres across Scotland, and easy access to outstanding countryside, coastline, outdoor activities and vibrant local communities

Salary & Benefits

  • £111,430 - £148,064 per annum
  • NHS Pension Scheme
  • Study Leave Allowance
  • Relocation Package Available
  • Accommodation Support
  • Skilled Worker Visa Sponsorship Available
  • Flexible Working Opportunities
