Consultant Histopathologist
East Grinstead, England, United Kingdom Full-time Posted 1 week ago
This post is a replacement position to assist our existing consultant team with a busy specialist workload. The trust is a major site for plastic reconstruction, skin/head/neck cancer, oral and maxillofacial pathology, and this role would be suited to candidates with expertise within these specialities – the successful candidate will have experience of, and an interest in, reporting skin and/or oral, head and neck and maxillofacial pathology.
The post holder will be based at the Queen Victoria Hospital, East Grinstead or remotely. Remote working in line with RCPath guidelines is permitted.
This post is advertised as a full-time post although less than full time or job share arrangements would be considered. Any applicant who is unable for personal reasons to work full-time will be eligible to be considered for the post. If such a person is appointed, modification of the job content will be discussed on a personal basis with the Trust in consultation with consultant colleagues. The ten PAs will include 1.5 PAs (or pro rata if less than full time) for supporting activities and administration.
At present there is no requirement to cover clinical responsibilities outside the hours of the traditional working week and the flexibility to work from home (according to College guidelines) for some of the week is an important aspect of the Trust’s commitment to flexible working.
The appointee will be expected to make a substantial contribution to the workload of the Histopathology service (including some diagnostic cytopathology). The case load and case mix of each consultant varies with special interest and is kept under review as part of consultant job planning and on-going departmental management.
Rated GOOD overall with outstanding care by the CQC. A specialist NHS hospital providing life-changing reconstructive surgery, burns care and rehabilitation services across the South of England and beyond.
We specialise in conditions of the eyes (corneoplastics), hands, head and neck cancer and skin cancer, reconstructive breast surgery, maxillofacial surgery and prosthetics, providing regional and national services in these areas of clinical expertise. Our world-leading clinical teams also treat more common conditions of the eyes, hands, skin, and teeth for the people of East Grinstead and the surrounding areas. In addition, QVH provides a minor injuries unit, expert therapies, a sleep service, and a growing portfolio of community-based services. Patients consistently rate QVH amongst the top hospitals in the country for quality of care.
Our success is underpinned by the skills and enthusiasm of our staff and a strong culture of partnership. We are fully committed to training and development of the workforce with support for continuing education and learning.
