Salaried GP (view to Partnership available)

Background -

An outstanding opportunity for an experienced, recently qualified or newly qualifying GP (including those requiring Tier 2 visa sponsorship) to join a dynamic GP Training practice which is excellently led and offers a very attractive working pattern as well as a barely believable sessional rate, but believe it you must!

The practice has moved with the times and embraced remote working, with the option of working a hybrid surgery and home session pattern. It is also continuing to innovate with ongoing workflow optimisation projects and looking at new roles to further compliment what is already an excellent skill mix supporting the GPs.
For those potentially interested in moving to the area, relocation support to the tune of £10,000 is available for those moving from over 40 miles away to within 25 miles of the practice.

Salary - £12,400 - £12,900 per session plus indemnity - the practice is also open to considering mileage expenses for those living on the boundaries of what might be considered commutable


Location - north of Plymouth, easily commutable from Plymouth itself as well as Launceston and Tavistock
