The post-holder will be provided with appropriate office facilities (shared office, networked PC) and secretarial support to fulfil this role. This is a replacement post with an established referral base, but the post-holder will be encouraged and supported to develop new referral pathways.

The post-holder will be offered the resources required to support their professional revalidation. Mentoring The post-holder will be offered personal and clinical mentorship by a senior consultant within the department according to their sub-specialty interest(s). Mentorship from a senior consultant will be available during the working week and over on-call weekday nights and weekends.
