Consultant Histopathologist

North Tees Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and South Tees Hospitals NHS Trust have collaborated to form a Hospital Group Structure known collectively as University Hospitals Tees. Within this structure the pathology departments have been working together to create the Tees Valley pathology service with the development of a central processing hub on the North Tees site and two Essential Service Laboratories on the James Cook and Friarage Hospital sites which will support urgent complex dissection and frozen section work as clinically appropriate .

We are actively seeking suitable candidates who will complement and develop existing services and join our existing teams of Consultant Cellular Pathologists. We anticipate that support will be required across our sites and that this post will be primarily based at The University Hospital of North Tees site.

Appointees are expected to undertake routine case reporting, including frozen section reporting, for a general surgical case mix and participate in relevant sub-specialty team reporting of complex resection specimens. A declared interest in a sub-specialist area of cellular pathology would be advantageous.

There is no requirement to report cervical cytology or diagnostic cytology. However, if a diagnostic cytology interest and expertise can be demonstrated inclusion in the cytology reporting rota will be considered.
