International recruitment campaign launched by HSE for 400 consultantsKenneth FoxThe HSE has launched a major international campaign to recruit more than 400 consultants to work in Ireland, including medics who practise abroad. Speaking about the initiative, Anne Marie Hoey, HSE national director of HR said: "This new recruitment campaign will specifically focus on recruitment of consultant doctors for our hospital and community services, where we hope to fill over 400 vacancies this year. “We’ll be targeting people working in Ireland and internationally, both those who trained in Ireland, and new talent from international locations. "We want to develop an awareness of the variety of consultant posts available in Ireland and make eligible clinicians aware that the new, generously-remunerated consultant contract is live. “The new consultant contract is central to our drive towards universal healthcare and delivering for our growing and aging population the health services they need."
