Summary

Previous applicants need not apply.

The Breast Surgical Unit seeks to appoint a locum oncoplastic breast surgeon to supplement our team of 5 Consultant Surgeons who provide specialist elective oncoplastic breast surgery, and 4 providing specialist endocrine surgical services. The locum consultant will help to develop the elective oncoplastic breast surgery provision across the whole of Teesside, working collaboratively with colleagues in South Tees under the joint group structure of executives leading the Trusts. This post holder will further bolster the significant inroads that have already been achieved in improving both the breast screening services and oncoplastic breast service provided by the Trust and in future throughout Teesside. This post is available on a fixed term basis for 12 months.

The successful candidate must have had specialist training in oncoplastic breast surgery including tissue displacement, mammoplasty, mastopexy, adipofascial flaps, implant based reconstruction, latissimus dorsi reconstruction and lipomodelling. There will be the opportunity to work with Consultant Plastic Surgeon colleagues for free flap surgery. Experience of working with screen detected cancers is also essential. A Fellowship in oncoplastic breast surgery would be advantageous.

South Tees Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and North Tees and Hartlepool NHS Foundation Trust have come together to form University Hospitals Tees. As a result, post holders may be required to work across sites within both organisations.

Across University Hospitals Tees, our ambition is to be the best place to work, ensuring we have the right staff in the right roles at the right time to deliver outstanding patient care and experience.

We are committed to supporting our staff through an inclusive and supportive working environment, offering health and wellbeing initiatives, staff benefits, and opportunities for personal and professional development.

We support the 'Making Every Contact Count' approach to behaviour change in the promotion of health and wellbeing of individuals and communities.

This is an exciting time to join University Hospital Tees to help redesign the workforce across the whole of Teesside. We are a high volume unit (800 - 900 cancers per year) with a strong MDT, research participation and regional influence. The successful candidate will be required to supervise and train numerous trainees from the Deanery along with MCh breast fellows and core trainees.
