We are looking for an enthusiastic individual who must have Certificate of Completion of Training (CCT) or equivalent qualification in Gynaecological Oncology and be registered in GMC's specialist register or be within six months of obtaining this at the time of interview, to join our team of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists and two sub-specialist consultant Gynaecological Oncologists. This is a permanent, replacement post following retirement of a third sub-specialist consultant.
Main duties of the job
There are presently three Consultants in Gynaecological Oncology working in the North Wales Gynaecological Cancer Centre. The proposed timetable for the new Consultant is a replacement for one of our existing consultants who is retiring. The post will be based in Ysbyty Gwynedd, Bangor. The surgical cancer centre provides an on-call service for the gynaecological cancer patients each week. We plan to each cover 1:6 weekends along with our general O& G consultants. However, the on-call commitments for this post do not include any general gynaecology or obstetric cover. This is allocated 1.0 sessions. Both the on-call and weekend ward round commitments involve prospective cover. There will be a commitment to undergraduate and postgraduate teaching.
