The Global Fellows Programme - Emergency Medicine is an exciting opportunity for international doctors in emergency medicine to join the NHS within the East of England and South East regions.

The programme is part of the wider Global Fellows Programme which is designed to support the development and learning of global health professionals who wish to improve and share knowledge and skills. The programme is run by NHS England which is supported, and fully endorsed by the Royal College of Emergency Medicine.

Aimed at recruiting international training fellows in emergency medicine, the programme complements our existing trainees, consultants, and specialty doctors.  These posts provide excellent opportunities for doctors with varying career aspirations with each post being fully integrated within the specialty team, supporting the high-quality provision of patient care in emergency medicine.

Successful candidates will be provided with a named contact, who will provide one-to-one support throughout their journey to the UK whilst also being on hand to answer any queries.  

The Global Fellows Programme - Emergency Medicine provides an ethical route for the recruitment of competent international doctors into the NHS for a period of between 2 to 3 years with a view to taking the knowledge, skills and experience they have acquired during their time in the NHS back to their home countries on completion of their earn, learn and return journey.
