Job summary

PENDING COLLEGE APPROVAL.

Due to relocation of the current post-holder, an exciting opportunity has arisen to appoint a new consultant in Medical Oncology with a responsibility for Sarcoma (including GISTs) and Germ Cell Tumours for Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust.

The post will be subject to the Terms and Conditions of the 2003 Consultant Contract. Candidates who prefer one of the advertised tumour sites with an alternative second tumour site are encouraged to discuss their preferences. The post will be based at Nottingham City Hospital Campus (alternative second tumour sites may require outpatient clinics at Kings Mill Hospital). The advertised role includes a small amount of CUP (cancer of unknown primary) work.

This is a full time post (10 PAs) but we are open to applications from people wishing to work less than full time or adopt a flexible full time working pattern. The job plan could be tailored to the successful candidate's desired working pattern, experience and interests. There is the opportunity for an appropriately qualified / experienced candidate to take on the role of germ cell lead for the East Midlands or to include a third tumour site. Additional leadership roles are also available for experienced candidates. Candidates who prefer just one of the advertised tumour sites with an alternative second tumour site are encouraged to discuss their preferences.

Main duties of the job

PENDING COLLEGE

APPROVAL. Sarcoma

The sarcoma teams are multidisciplinary teams of plastic, orthopaedic and abdominal surgeons, medical and clinical oncologists and specialist trainees (in oncology usually one medical and one clinical oncology trainee), radiologists and pathologists, supported by Clinical Nurse Specialists (CNSs) and sarcoma physiotherapists, and access to dedicated onco-psychology services. NUH hosts the East Midlands main sarcoma MDT (the supra-regional MDT discusses approx. 250 new sarcoma diagnoses per annum) and currently supports sarcoma patients in the catchment area of Nottingham City and County as well as Lincolnshire. Patients in Derbyshire are treated at the Royal Derby Hospital, with the exception of patients undergoing curative treatment for bone sarcomas.

Germ Cell Tumours (GCT)

You will be joining a multidisciplinary team treating GCT at NUH. NUH hosts the East Midlands GCT MDT covering the five East Midlands cancer networks (Nottingham, Leicester, Derby, Lincoln and Northampton) as well as the Arden network (Coventry and Warwickshire). This MDT discusses 500-600 new cases a year. All patients with poor prognosis metastatic or relapsed GCT and patients with primary intracranial GCT are managed at NUH. Patients with stage 1, good and intermediate prognosis metastatic GCT are managed in their local centre, although patients with intermediate prognosis metastatic disease are offered participation in the accelerated BEP trial at NUH.

About us
