The BHA is seeking a Chief Medical Adviser to provide expert strategic, and operational, advice regarding overall medical standards for approximately 1300 professional and amateur riders, including monitoring compliance with those standards.

The successful candidate will have proven experience as a GP or specialist, will have previously worked in professional sport, and have experience and training in pre-hospital trauma care. Ideally you will have managed medical teams and major events, but it is essential to have a strong understanding of good clinical governance. Such experience will enable you to oversee the riders’ injury reporting system, advise on clearing riders following injury, occasionally examine riders in a clinical setting, manage protocols such as that relating to concussion, and advise on medical aspects of licence applications.
