This is an exciting time to join the pathology team in Dorset. We are currently making great progress with our vision to create a first class integrated pathology service for Dorset.

The 'One Dorset Pathology' service Dorset County Hospital, Poole Hospital and The Royal Bournemouth and Christchurch Hospitals will provide clinicians, patients and carers with a consistent and high standard of service across the area and maximise efficiency in the use of resources.

Staff will be able to develop to their full potential and substantial investment has been agreed, offering opportunities for service development and state-of-the-art modernisation.

We are looking for an experienced and motivated individual to join our friendly Blood Sciences team at Dorset County Hospital. The hospital is located in the county town of Dorchester which is eight miles from the Jurassic coastline and award winning beach.

Participation in the 24/7 shift system, once trained, is expected and brings an additional payment at agenda for change pay rates.

The department provides a wide range of investigations to Hospital clinicians, Community Services and and General Practitioners. As a multidiscipline environment the department can offer the successful candidate a role with a more holistic view of blood sciences.
