Summary
Diagnostic services are shared between consultants on a flexible rota, agreed among the consultants. There is currently general working with each consultant covering between two and four subspecialties. The specific clinical duties of the post will be agreed with the successful candidate at the time of job planning. The appointed consultants will be expected to participate in diagnostic surgical pathology and multidisciplinary team meetings. There is a requirement for diagnostic cytopathology but no requirement to provide a pathologist-aspirator FNA service. It is expected that Consultants will participate in EQA in their specialist areas. The post holder accepts that they will also perform duties in occasional emergencies and unforeseen circumstances at the request of the appropriate consultant, in consultation, where practicable, with their colleagues, both senior and junior. While it has been agreed between the professions that they will perform such duties, the Secretary of State stresses that additional commitments arising under this sub-section are exceptions and you should not be required to undertake work of this kind for prolonged periods or on a regular basis. Please see the job description and person specification attached to the advert for further details of the post.
