Summary


The ENT department is seekingself-motivated enthusiastic candidates to apply for the role of ENT Head & Neck Clinical Fellow.

We welcome applications from individuals who are excited to work in a thriving research collaborative, established between Professor Emma King (UHD and University Hospitals Southampton) for laboratory based research projects with Professor Gareth Thomas and theExperimental Pathology Group at the University of Southampton.

The unit is a training unit attracting positive feedback from NTN registrars in the Wessex deanery as well as national and international fellows within Head & Neck surgery as well as interventional laryngology.

The UHD ENT department sits within the Head & Neck Directorate as part of the Surgical Care Group. The service provides elective and emergency services at Poole hospital with Outpatient activity across both Royal Bournemouth and Poole Hospitals.

The ENT multi-disciplinary team consists of 6 Consultants Surgeons, middle-grades, registrars, junior doctors, Advanced Nurse Practitioners, H&N Cancer Nurse Specialists and specialist nurses within the Head & Neck ward.

We are seeking collaborative team players who can work well together with our current ENT Team and more generally allied surgical and medical colleagues to continue to move the department forward and support patient care.

The fellow will support the Head and Neck cancer service preparing and presenting at the Head and Neck multidisciplinary team meeting, Head and Neck clinics and Head and Neck theatres. Other days are ringfenced for research commitments. Theatre cases range from diagnostic panendoscopies to transoral tumour resections (laser or robot) to laryngopharyngectomies.



The successful candidate will take part in the middle grade on-call rota and play an active role supporting their junior doctor colleagues.

Our values define who we are as #TeamUHD. They underpin everything we do now and in the future. They define how we treat our patients, visitors, and each other, our valued teammates and colleagues.

UHD are investing in services across the Trust, with many being transformed and developed following merger and the New Hospital Programme.

This means that some services may move site this year or next, either temporarily or long term. Recruiting Managers interviewing for this role will be happy to answer any specific questions that you have about this at interview.

The Head & Neck ward will move from Poole Hospital to Bournemouth Hospital in January 2026. Complex surgery will then take place at Bournemouth Hospital from this point. Candidates will work across site with activities both on the Planned Care Site (Poole Hospital) and emergency work and complex work on the Emergency Site (Bournemouth Hospital).

Please note if the role or service is relocated as part of a planned move, employees will not be eligible for excess mileage reimbursement. Travel from the postholder's home to the new work base will be considered a normal commute. Any other changes not related to this relocation will be managed according to the relevant Trust or National terms and conditions.
