SHR Group places salaried GPs into NHS GP surgeries, PCNs, and private practices across the UK. Permanent and part-time positions — matched to your preferred sessions, location, and clinical system.
A salaried GP is an employed doctor working within a GP practice or PCN on a fixed contract — typically 4–10 sessions per week. Unlike a GP Partner, a salaried GP does not hold equity in the practice or carry personal financial liability for its performance.
Salaried GP positions offer stability, an NHS pension, paid leave, and a defined workload — making them increasingly popular among GPs who want the benefits of a permanent role without the administrative and financial responsibilities of partnership.

Most salaried GP roles in NHS primary care include a standard benefits package. Here's what you can typically expect.
Employer contributions to the NHS Pension Scheme — one of the most valuable defined benefit schemes available in the UK.
Typically 6 weeks' paid annual leave per year, plus bank holidays — pro-rated for part-time positions.
NHS sick pay entitlement, increasing with years of service — significantly better than self-employed locum arrangements.
Most practices provide paid study leave and CPD funding — enabling you to maintain appraisal and revalidation requirements.
NHS maternity and paternity pay entitlement — unavailable to locum and self-employed GPs.
Many practices contribute to or fully cover professional indemnity costs for salaried GPs — confirm at interview stage.
