Description

Applications are invited for a 10PA Substantive Consultant in Paediatric Haematology at Nottingham University Hospitals. The post will involve malignant, benign and laboratory haematology. An interest in either haemoglobinopathy or leukaemia will best complement the existing team.

The post comes with a recruitment incentive "golden hello".

Our East Midlands Children's and Young Person's Integrated Cancer Service (EMCYPICS) is a two site principle treatment centre for malignant haematology based across Nottingham and Leicester and takes approximately 140 new malignant patients each year.

The post is Nottingham based, but with links via a shared MDT.

Nottingham University Hospital Trust is commissioned as a Specialist Haemoglobinopathies Team (SHT) and is part of the East Midlands Sickle and Thalassemia network (EMSTN).

We are also a Haemophilia Comprehensive Care Centre.

Our inpatient unit houses a teenage cancer trust area, adjacent daycare facilities with a theatre room and access to paediatric intensive care on the same corridor.

It is essential that applicants have specific training in paediatric haematology and are fully registered with the GMC with entry to the specialist register for haematology (or the expectation of award of CCT within 6 months of interview).

Please refer to the job description for full details. Additional enquiries and visits are very welcome.

The successful applicant will become part of a friendly and collaborative team of 7 substantive consultant haematologists and oncologists. At present we have an additional locum colleague with a business case for a substantive expansion post awaiting approval. We have strong links with the University of Nottingham, with two team members having academic appointments.

There are currently 3 consultants covering the haematology service with one lead each for leukaemia, haemostasis and red cell disorders.

An adult haematologist also contributes to the haemostasis service.
We have excellent links with the surgical team with dedicated lists for line insertions as well as haematological procedures.

Nottingham and the surrounding area is a hidden gem, being a beautiful yet affordable place to live with outstanding nearby schools and excellent transport links to other major cities.

Please refer to job description & personal specification for further information regarding the post.

Face to Face interviews will take place on.
