Doctors' Pay Deal

Resident doctors have agreed a deal with the Government. The deal includes a new pay structure and improved career progression opportunities. This follows a vote by the BMA to accept the offer. The agreement is expected to benefit resident doctors. It aims to address concerns around pay and career development. The deal may help to improve working conditions for doctors in the NHS.

What this means if you're looking for NHS work

GovJobs is tracking 3,997 open NHS vacancies today, 3,974 of them added in the past seven days. Across the adverts that publish a salary, the median advertised starting figure is £39,000.

The organisations recruiting most heavily right now are Barchester Healthcare (117), Avery Healthcare Group Ltd. (74), Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital (73) and Cygnet Health Care (57).

Geographically the roles cluster in London (658), South East (614), North West (483), South West (467).

Pay announcements take time to reach live adverts: an advert already published normally keeps the figure it was posted with, and the new rate shows up in later postings or is applied on appointment. If pay is the deciding factor, check the advert date as well as the salary, and confirm the current rate with the employer before you accept.
