The post can be discussed at interview but, as a guide, will comprise 4 endoscopy service lists per week, 3 flexible clinical sessions (either an additional endoscopy list or an outpatient clinic), and 3 non-clinical sessions.
The focus of the non-clinical sessions will be endoscopy-based research; previous post-holders have undertaken wide-ranging research including endoscopy RCTs, bowel cancer screening, surveillance, complex polyps, endoscopic complications, post-colonoscopy colorectal cancer, National Endoscopy Database, and colonoscopy performance.
The post is suitable for either medical or surgical doctors or clinical endoscopists with a minimum of 3 years' experience in gastroenterology/endoscopy and will be based in the Endoscopy Department at the University Hospital of North Tees.
It is highly desirable that candidates are competent in independent gastroscopy and colonoscopy. Candidates must have previous experience of endoscopic audits and should be able to demonstrate an interest in endoscopy research.
