Description

Applications are invited for the above full-time post, fixed term for 12 months, to join the dynamic Urology team based at Stepping Hill Hospital, who provide services across a managed clinical network covering Stockport, Tameside, Macclesfield and High Peak, including full sub-specialisation and robotic surgery.

The post is aimed at those with previous experience of working in Urology at a senior trainee level.

Stockport urology covers a large geographical area and covers other hospitals for benign and cancer surgery. Since 2015 we have been using the da vinci Si robot which has been recently upgraded. We are the largest robotic centre in greater Manchester and do approximately 380 robotic urology cases per year.

In addition, the post-holder will be expected to uphold the standards required for urology cancer accreditation, the cancer standards including inter - Trust transfers and 18 week targets

Our mission is to make a difference every day. Our values are that we care, we respect, and we listen

We believe that the best organisations are those that reflect the communities they serve.

We are therefore seeking to improve the diversity of our workforce to make it truly representative of our local population.

We recognise that flexible working is important.
