A full-time (10 PA) Consultant Haematologist post is available at Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust based at Stoke Mandeville Hospital (SMH), Aylesbury and Wycombe Hospital (WH). This is a substantive post and has been created from PAs that will become available within the department.

The successful applicant will join the 7 other substantive consultants in this busy department covering outpatient work at both WH and SMH and the combined inpatient ward at SMH. The appointee will join the haematology consultant out of hours rota (frequency 1 in 8). This includes working 1 in 8 weeks covering the ward/ inpatients and weekend providing a daily weekend consultant ward round for approximately 10 to 14 haematology inpatients at Stoke Mandeville Hospital, as well as on-call cover.

Any applicant who is unable, for personal reasons, to work full-time will be eligible to be considered for the post. If such a person is appointed, modification of the job content will be discussed on a personal basis with the Trust in consultation with consultant colleagues.

Applicants that are UK trained, must also be a holder of a Certificate of Completion of Training (CCT), or be within six months of award of CCT by the date of interview. Applicants that are non-UK trained will be required to show evidence of equivalence to the UK CCT.

Existing consultants are experienced in general and malignant haematology and currently have areas of special interest covering haemostasis and coagulation, transfusion, haemoglobinopathies and paediatric haematology and share general laboratory duties.
