Anaesthesia is the UK’s largest secondary care specialty. 16% of all hospital consultants are anaesthetists and over two-thirds of hospital in-patients will see an anaesthetist. The Royal College of Anaesthetists (RCoA) supports approximately 17,500 members and fellows and approximately 3,500 from the RCoA’s Faculties of Intensive Care Medicine and Pain Medicine.

The RCoA is committed to setting the highest standards for anaesthesia and patient care and we work closely with anaesthetists to improve the service they provide. This work is supported by high-quality research focusing on patients’ safety and outcomes.

As the Clinical Quality Projects Coordinator you will be primarily responsible for project managing the development of Guidelines for the Provision of Anaesthetic Services (GPAS) and ensuring it follows our National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) accredited chapter development process.
