We are looking for a dynamic, forward-thinking Consultant Physician to complete a team of nine (including new appointments) covering East Yorkshire for our NHS Client. The Directorate would equally welcome applications from existing and newly trained Consultants.

This post is based in the Elderly Care and Rehabilitation Department at the NHS facilities with opportunities to work across site.

The successful candidate will be encouraged to work as part of an established multidisciplinary team inputting and helping to develop new models of care within an acute frailty pathway. This is an opportunity to join an organisation in which Clinicians are at the forefront of management and service development.

The East Riding of Yorkshire, or simply East Riding or East Yorkshire, is an area in Northern England. The name is traditionally and geographically a reference to the easternmost of the three subdivisions (called Thrydings or Ridings) of the traditional county of Yorkshire. The traditional cultural and historic geographic county, the East Riding of Yorkshire borders the North Sea to the east of the county. To the north across the River Derwent is the North Riding of Yorkshire, and to the west across the River Ouse is the West Riding of Yorkshire.

In terms of neighbouring local government administration, the East Riding of Yorkshire unitary authority adjoins North Yorkshire to the north, north-west and to the west, South Yorkshire metropolitan area to the south-west and Lincolnshire across the Humber Estuary to the south. The City of Kingston upon Hull is a separate unitary authority immediately to the south and forms part of the ceremonial county area. Other councils areas adjacent to the unitary authority include North East Lincolnshire, beyond the Humber Estuary; North Lincolnshire, beyond the Humber and on land; Hull, Doncaster, Selby, York, Ryedale and Scarborough.

The landscape consists of a crescent of low chalk hills, the Yorkshire Wolds, surrounded by the low-lying fertile plains of Holderness and the Vale of York. The Humber Estuary and North Sea mark its southern and eastern limits. Archaeological investigations have revealed artefacts and structures from all historical periods since the last ice age. There are few large settlements and no industrial centres. The area is administered from the ancient market and ecclesiastical town of Beverley.

Major sporting and entertainment venues are concentrated in Kingston upon Hull, while the seaside and market towns support semi-professional and amateur sports clubs and provide seasonal entertainment for visitors. Bishop Burton is the site of an agricultural college, and Hull provides the region's only university. On the southern border, close to Hull, the Humber Bridge spans the Humber Estuary to enable the A15 to link Hessle with Barton-upon-Humber in North Lincolnshire.

In 2019, there were 601k residents in East Riding of Yorkshire county with an average age of 42.2 years. Population density was 242 residents per square kilometer. Population grew by 5.8% since 2002 and population average age increased by 2.6 years in the same period. Based on Census, there were 2.31 residents per household in 2011.
