The post holder will be expected to play a pivotal role in the Renal and Skin Medical Oncology team and the Acute Oncology Service (AOS) at the Royal Marsden, Sutton site.

The acute oncology component, shared with 4 other consultants, would involve management of acutely unwell oncology patients, in the Centre for Urgent Care (CUC) in Sutton. At times this will include telephone support to the Royal Marsden Macmillan Hotline, when covering the AOS. The AOS consultants are supported by a team of AOS ANPs and junior doctors and the post-holder would play a key role supporting their education and development. The post-holder would also be expected to contribute to service development and research in the AOS.

This is a Sutton-based post and office space and secretarial support will be provided at the Sutton branch of the Royal Marsden. Junior doctors (HEE trainees and clinical fellows) also support the clinical and research activities of the Renal and Skin team.
