The Children and Young People’s Diabetes Service is well established and is one of the largest in the UK, using the latest diabetes technologies including hybrid closed loop insulin delivery systems. The service also provides intensive support for young people struggling with their diabetes. This is an award-winning service with outstanding results.
We would particularly value applicants with active experience in research, pre-clinical type 1 diabetes, immunotherapy or technology. The appointee may have an additional interest that complements the current skills within our team, including mental health, safeguarding, neurodevelopment or adolescent medicine. There is a possible future oncall for diabetes.

We would expect the appointee to have or develop a sub-speciality interest in endocrinology that complements the current interests within our department, such as puberty and reproductive endocrinology disorders, pituitary disorders, adrenal disorders, DSD, late effects of cancer treatments, and to support the endocrine component of the NHS England specialist services for Children and Young People (CYP) with Gender Incongruence (previously GIDS).
Teaching and research
The appointee will be expected to participate in teaching activities on the UCH site, liaise with the GOSH teaching and training lead, and will be responsible for educational supervision of trainees.
