Consultant Intestinal Failure & Clinical Nutrition Gastroenterology

This advertisement is for a substantive post within the Department of Gastroenterology at the NNUH including the Quadram Institute. We are looking to attract high quality applicants who have an interest in Clinical Nutrition and intestinal failure. We can accommodate a range of sub-specialist interests, candidates with a research interest and those who are looking for part time and or a post-retirement post.

This post has arisen due to the need to maintain our inpatient and outpatient clinical nutrition and intestinal failure service and a growing need to increase our upper and lower GI endoscopic provision in alignment with the opening of our endoscopy unit in the Quadram Institute (see below), a drive to increase our academic profile and support the wider STP (Sustainability and Transformation Partnership).

This opportunity has been deliberately left open to allow candidates to develop their own subspecialist interests whether that be clinical, endoscopic, nutrition, physiology, research, or some combination of the above.

A candidate who is unable for personal reasons to undertake the duties of a whole-time post will receive equal consideration. For consultants wishing to move from existing posts we offer flexible working opportunities. If such a candidate is appointed to this post, content will be modified as appropriate in consultation with the Gastroenterology and GI Endoscopic Service Director.

Main duties of the job

The post holder will be expected to be proficient in emergency endoscopy including management of varices (not necessarily gastric varices). The out of hours on call commitment will include emergency gastroenterology and hepatology referrals and emergency endoscopy cover for the Trust as part of a formal upper GI bleeding rota that the department offers 24/7 service in accordance with NICE guidelines.

Out of hours endoscopy cover is supported by 2 on-call endoscopy nurses and most cases are scoped in the endoscopy department although emergency theatres and full anaesthetic cover is available for severe cases. ERCP/EUS experience is not required for these posts. We currently have a small bowel capsule service, but if a post holder wished to undertake these, this would also be supported.

All consultants, including the appointee, will be expected to be involved in implementing the Trust's Clinical Governance programme. This includes active participation in clinical audit, quality, clinical guidelines/pathways, professional development, appraisal, and risk management.

The successful applicant will share an office, equipped with a personal computer and full access to trust IT systems, with 1 other consultant. There will be full secretarial support
