Applications are invited for a 10PA Locum Consultant in Paediatric Haematology, or Oncologist/Paediatrician with an interest in Haematology at Nottingham University Hospitals.

The post will involve malignant, benign and laboratory haematology.


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 regional referral centre for bleeding disorders.

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.

The successful applicant will become part of a friendly and collaborative team of 7 consultant haematologists and oncologists. 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.

Nottingham and the surrounding area is a beautiful place to live with outstanding nearby schools and excellent transport links to other major cities.

Main duties of the job


It is essential that applicants have specific training in paediatric haematology, 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.

Working for our organisation

The successful applicant will become part of a friendly and collaborative team of 7 consultant haematologists and oncologists. We have strong links with the University of Nottingham, with two team members having academic appointments.

The wider paediatric team is very welcoming and sociable and includes general paediatrics, nephrology, rheumatology, metabolic, gastroenterology, intensive care and interests in cardiology.

We have excellent links with paediatric surgery with dedicated theatre time for line insertions and have twice weekly dedicated bone marrow/intrathecal lists.

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.

Detailed job description and main responsibilities


Job plan and timetable


The following draft Job Plan reflects our best assessment of what the final plan will be, based on 10 PAs.

Any consultant who is unable, for personal reasons, to work full-time will be eligible to be considered for the post on a part-time basis; 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 service provided by paediatric haematology is across both campuses. However your primary base is Queens Medical Centre.

The post holder will be expected to maintain and regularly update their practical skills in bone marrow biopsy and the administration of intrathecal cytotoxic chemotherapy as defined by NUH Trust Policy on the Administration of intrathecal Chemotherapy.
