This post is designed to provide specialist advanced endoscopy training with research experience and to support the activities of the endoscopy department and in the Division of Gastroenterology and Nottingham Digestive Diseases Centre.

Main duties of the job


The post will be based at both Queen's Medical Centre and Nottingham City campuses and there may also be endoscopy outsourcing list opportunities.

The post holder will work alongside a variety of Consultant Gastroenterologists and GI Surgeons and be responsible to the clinical leads in Endoscopy.

This is a one-year post specifically intended for registrars approaching their final years of training or immediate post-CCT, and wishing to expand their endoscopy experience.

Working for our organisation

Nottingham University Hospitals currently has 3 endoscopy units with 11 rooms.

At the QMC campus there is an inpatient facility with 2 endoscopy rooms catering for ERCP, EUS, RFA, EMR and inpatient endoscopy including acute GI bleeds.


The JAG-accredited NUH Treatment Centre on the QMC site has 4 state of the art endoscopy procedure rooms where all types of elective luminal endoscopy takes place, as well as adjacent operating theatre suite for weekly HPB, UGI and LGI propafol/GA endoscopy lists.

Detailed job description and main responsibilities


The primary clinical duty of this post is to provide flexible cover for endoscopy lists cancelled by endoscopists and to perform inpatient endoscopic procedures as required.

The post will therefore include an average of 5 flexible service sessions per week (predominantly endoscopy but also clinics, as required) with the opportunity for having three sessions dedicated to special interest endoscopy.

Depending on the post holders experience capsule endoscopy reporting may be required.

The post-holder will be required to work closely with the operations team for the smooth running of the endoscopy unit on a daily basis that will require regular vetting of referrals and support the administration and nursing team.

The work intensity will vary depending on the number of lists cancelled by other endoscopists.

There will be a need to cover Gastroenterology out-patient clinics within the 5 service sessions when there is increased demand in the out-patient services.

There will be one session for audit/research and one session for patient or service related administration work.
