7 days ago


Bristol, Bristol, United Kingdom University Hospitals Bristol and Weston NHS Foundation Trust Full time
Applications are invited for a permanent Consultant in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, for 7 PAs.


We are looking for a dynamic and dedicated individual wishing to work within the Maxillo-facial surgery department to provide service delivery (including clinical and theatre lists and taking part in the on-call rota).

Suitable applicants would form part of a cohesive team within the department of Maxillofacial Surgery at Bristol Dental Hospital.


This post will support the delivery of the Head and Neck cancer service across the region, working as part of a cohesive multi-disciplinary team.


The post holder will be expected to have a high level of knowledge and expertise in the field of OMFS and be prepared to work collaboratively with existing colleagues within the department.

The applicant will be expected to form an integral part of the established Head & Neck Cancer Service. They should have broad experience of treating head and neck cancer cases.

The applicant should be confident and experienced in the full range of head & neck reconstructive free flaps for OMFS.

A fellowship in Head & Neck Cancer would be considered essential to address the case mix within our department.


The post holder would be part of the established Head & Neck MDTs who treat around 300 mucosal malignancies per year.

The role involves diagnostics, planning of complex surgical care (ablative and reconstructive), surgery and aftercare.


The post is based at Bristol Dental Hospital as part of the University of Bristol, so the applicant should be prepared to be involved with teaching and supervision of both OMFS trainees and undergraduate Dental & Medical students.

The position is part of the Pan Avon on-call rota at a 1:8 level with doubly qualified StRs and dentally qualified DCT forming the first two tiers of the rota.

The applicant should therefore be experienced in the whole remit of OMFS and would be expected to contribute to trauma management.

The successful applicant would be part of the Department of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery. Clinical care, teaching and SPA activities are mostly undertaken in Bristol Dental Hospital.

Clinics are for the most part held in a purpose designed multidisciplinary area on the ground floor of the Dental Hospital and School.

Peripheral clinics also occur at other sites according to the flexible operational requirements of the department and to offer sufficient coverage for trauma and cancer to the surrounding population (Weston General, North Bristol NHS trust).


The Department covers the whole remit of OMFS including:

Head & neck cancer, salivary gland surgery, thyroid surgery, trauma, orthognathic surgery, cleft surgery (primary and secondary), dental implant and bone augmentation, dento-alveolar surgery, TMJ surgery, skin surgery.
