Manchester, United Kingdom Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT) was formed in 2017 following the merger of Central Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (CMFT) and the University Hospital of South Manchester NHS Foundation Trust (UHSM). With the inclusion of North Manchester General Hospital from the 1 st April 2021, our organisation provides a single hospital service across the City of Manchester, where these changes will make a real difference to the health outcomes and quality of life for the communities we serve. As a result, it is an exciting and challenging period in the delivery of health and social care in Manchester and one that provides a wealth of opportunity.

THE POST

We are seeking to appoint a committed full-time (10PA) Consultant Paediatric and Perinatal Pathologist to join our experienced and highly motivated team. This post will include perinatal and coroner’s post mortem (autopsy) pathology, placental pathology, and routine paediatric surgical pathology.

**MAIN RESPONSIBILITIES**:
You will join a team of six other full and part time Consultant Paediatric and Perinatal Pathologists. The main responsibilities of this post would be:
- Participation in the perinatal and hospital-consented autopsy service.

Participation in the coroner’s autopsy service.

Reporting placentas.

Reporting routine paediatric surgical pathology, including gastrointestinal biopsies.

Subspecialist reporting may be required to meet the needs of the department.

Contribution to the paediatric oncology/neuro-oncology service.

Involvement in relevant clinicopathological meetings and MDTs.

Contribution to the training and supervision of junior medical staff.

MFT is England’s largest NHS Trust with a turnover of £2.6bn & is on a different scale than most other NHS Trusts. We’re creating an exceptional integrated health & social care system for the 1 million patients who rely on our services every year.

Bringing together 10 hospitals & community services from across Manchester, Trafford & beyond, we champion collaborative working & transformation, encouraging our 28,000 workforce to pursue their most ambitious goals. We set standards that other Trusts seek to emulate so you’ll benefit from a scale of opportunity that is nothing short of extraordinary.

We’ve also created a digitally enabled organisation to improve clinical quality, patient & staff experience, operational effectiveness & driving research and innovation through the introduction of Hive; our brand-new Electronic Patient Record system which we’ve launched in September 2022.

We’re proud to be a major academic Research Centre & Education provider, providing you with a robust infrastructure to encourage and facilitate high-quality research programmes. What’s more, we’re excited to be embarking on our new Green Plan which will set out how MFT continues to play its part in making healthcare more sustainable.

At MFT, we create and foster a culture of inclusion and belonging, provide equal opportunities for career development that are fair, open and transparent, protecting your health and wellbeing and shaping the future of our organisation together.

COVID-19 vaccination remains the best way to protect yourself, your family, your colleagues and of course patients from the virus when working in our healthcare settings. Whilst COVID-19 vaccination is not currently a condition of employment, we do encourage our staff to get vaccinated. If you are unvaccinated, there is helpful advice and information available by searching on the ‘NHS England’ website where you can also find out more about how to access the vaccination.

Diversity Matters

We’re looking forward to hearing from you
