The urology service is dynamic and undergoing significant change and improvement with scope for further input and contribution. The post-holder will also be expected to continue developing the newly established andrology service, collaborate with regional andrology centres, and develop links with BHRUT Women’s health team, providing support to partners. This Trust covers a large population serving the Northeast London and Essex catchment area, with a need for an emergency and elective andrology service, working closely with the local tertiary centre, and supporting the specialist nurses.

We also provide outpatient services at Brentwood Community Hospital, Barking Community Hospital, Loxford Polyclinic, and Harold Wood Polyclinic.

We’re pleased to be leading the way inreducing the time our patientswait to get the treatment they need. The Elective Surgical Hub at King George Hospital is one of eight to beaccredited as part of a national scheme; the Care Quality Commission has raised the ratings for urgent and emergency care at Queen’s and King George hospitals; and data released by NHS England showed that the Trust was the most improved in 2023 for reducing waits for emergency care.

We are particularly proud of our regional Neurosciences Centre; Radiotherapy Centre; Hyper Acute Stroke Unit; and dedicated breast care service at King George Hospital. We’re also part of theNorth East London Cancer Alliance.

The successful candidate will be expected to work closely with colleagues and managers with the aim of developing pathways ensuring smooth and efficient pathways for our patients.
