The trust actively supports career progress either to the Specialty Doctor, or through article 14 to achieve full CCT, with the potential for obtaining a full consultant post subsequently.
Each Senior Clinical Fellow has a Consultant to act as their educational supervisor, with specific time allocated in the Consultants job plans to provide support and mentoring.

The Hospital actively promotes career development and progression for all staff.
The Hospital has excellent access to the surrounding areas with easy access to central London and the rural Chilterns. The rural areas include many attractive villages and towns within easy reach of the Hospital including St Albans and Harpenden. Excellent schools are found nearby. There is also very good access to the Midlands and North by road using the M1 or A1, or by rail to one of the Luton’s three stations.
