Specialty Doctor in Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery

The Royal Surrey NHS Foundation Trust is seeking a motivated and enthusiastic Specialty Doctor to join our dynamic and highly specialised Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Department on a substantive 8PA contract. This is an excellent opportunity to work within a large, forward-thinking unit that delivers a comprehensive maxillofacial service to a wide population base. You will be joining a supportive and experienced team, contributing to the delivery of high-quality maxillofacial care. Responsibilities will include elective and emergency work across the breadth of the specialty, appropriate to experience and training level. Participation in departmental meetings, teaching, and quality improvement activities is encouraged. This post is ideal for candidates seeking to broaden their maxillofacial experience in a busy unit with exposure to a wide procedural mix and complex casework. If you are looking to develop your skills in a vibrant department, we look forward to receiving your application and would welcome informal discussions with our joint Clinical Directors.

A full range of oral and maxillofacial surgery is practised within our department including dentoalveolar surgery, management of maxillofacial trauma, correction of facial deformity, head and neck oncology surgery, microsurgical reconstruction and extensive skin malignancy management. We also provide a significant contribution to head and neck cancer pathways, reconstructive surgery, and complex facial deformity correction, supported by experienced multidisciplinary teams. The department benefits from on-site facilities including dedicated theatre time, a minor ops theatre of which Maxillofacial is the main user and an on-site maxillofacial laboratory. There are strong working relationships across the Trust, especially with the Regional Radiotherapy Unit, Dermatology, and ENT, enabling seamless multidisciplinary care and high-quality patient outcomes.
