Full Job Description
This post is to expand and develop the regional paediatric haematology service after centralisation of services into one department based in the Great North Children's Hospital. This follows expansion of patient numbers and will allow consolidation of consultant areas of interest feeding into the stem cell transplant and cellular therapies service.
Depending on the interests and expertise of the candidates this may include clinical management of patients with non-malignant conditions including haemoglobinopthies and malignant haematological disorders.Haemostasis and Thrombosis services are provided by the adult haematology team in Royal Victoria Infirmary and are not included in the paediatric haematology service.
As a flexible working friendly organisation, we want to be sure that you can work in a way that is best for us and for our patients, and for you. Speak to us about how we might be able to accommodate a flexible working arrangement. If it works for the service, we will do our best to make it work for you.
We are delighted to be able to offer an opportunity for a highly motivated, ambitious individual to join our well integrated team.
This post is part of the service development to centralise and develop paediatric haematology, to consolidate expertise in the department and focus primarily on non-malignant haematology and leukaemia. The Great North Children's Hospital provides specialist paediatric haematology across a large area encompassing the North East and North West of England with most of the care being delivered centrally. Newcastle is the regional sickle cell and haemoglobinopathy centre with a designated Specialist Haemoglobinopathy Team; it is a high prevalence area for haemoglobinopathy patients within the region and referrals are continuing to rise requiring significant development of the service. We are looking for motivated individuals to help drive forward this exciting phase within paediatric haematology in Newcastle. The candidate must be able to evidence relevant expertise and training. The post is open to those who hold FRCPath (or equivalent) and have relevant paediatric experience, as well as
candidates who have trained as paediatricians and can demonstrate relevant training in haematology.

We have a long history of providing high quality care, clinical excellence, and innovation in medical research regionally, nationally and internationally.We're also proud to be the second largest provider of specialised services in the country.

Our staff oversee around 1.84 million patients 'contacts' each year, delivering high standards of healthcare.
We are committed to promoting equality and diversity and recognise the benefit in providing an inclusive environment. We value and respect the diversity of our employees and aim to recruit a workforce which reflects the communities we serve, and is equipped to deliver the best service to our patients. We welcome all applications irrespective of people's race, disability, gender, sexual orientation, religion or belief, age, gender identity, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity and in particular those from under- represented groups.
