Portsmouth Hospitals University NHS Trust has a vision to be recognised as a world-class hospital, leading the field through innovative healthcare solutions, focusing on the best outcomes for our patients, delivered in a safe, caring and inspiring environment.
This is a new substantive post to meet the increasing demands for expertise in Cancer & Benign UGI surgery, and to support the busy on-call with increased consultant on-site involvement. Advanced minimal access and/or robotic surgery experience is of particular importance. The post is based in the UGI Surgical Unit to work very closely with 6 consultant colleagues on a day-to-day basis to cover general aspects of UGI work. We aim to appoint a well-trained specialist in upper GI surgery with sufficient general surgical experience to be confident in the management of general surgical emergencies. Training and experience in a tertiary referral centre for UGI disease will be preferable, and a higher degree, UGI publications and ongoing UGI research interest will be looked upon very favourably. Ability to work flexibly as a team member with existing colleagues is essential.
