Seeking a candidate to fill a vacant post
Hospitals are invited to submit time-limited ST level posts which include a training component. These can be funded from savings on locum costs or by converting hospital posts to MTI posts.
The RCP then identifies and interviews appropriate applicants before inviting the hospital to interview successful candidates by telephone to ensure their suitability for the post.
Applications can be made to the MTI team via mti@rcp.ac.uk by completing a post submission form and job description template.
The table shows the wide range of candidates we have interviewed for the MTI scheme and are ready to be placed in UK hospitals. If you would like to enquire about any of the specialties/grades available, get in touch with the team via mti@rcp.ac.uk.

Please ask the candidate to follow this link to our MTI Portal to commence an application.
