We offer an exciting opportunity for a Consultant Clinical Oncologist specialising in Breast Cancer to join a well-established multidisciplinary team in the South East of England. 

You will work collaboratively with a team of expert clinicians, contributing to high-quality oncology services in a dynamic and forward-thinking department. The role primarily focuses on Breast cancer, but there is scope to combine this with a second subspecialty interest—skin cancer is currently outlined. However, alternatives may be considered based on the applicant's expertise.

Main Responsibilities:

• Lead and manage the care of breast cancer patients, including radiotherapy and Systemic Anti-Cancer Therapy (SACT).
• Attend and contribute to weekly MDT meetings and specialist clinics.
• Engage in radiotherapy peer reviews and contribute to the planning and supervising on-treatment review clinics.
• Participate in inpatient care and acute oncology services, including out-of-hours support and on-call duties.
• Participate actively in clinical trials, service development, and continuous improvement.
• Provide specialist oncology input at local and regional levels.
• Teach and supervise junior medical staff, allied health professionals, and medical trainees.
• Support the education and training within the department and across the organisation.
• Option to join the oligometastatic SABR service for suitably experienced candidates.

Opportunities:

• Protected time for Continuing Medical Education and CPD activities as the Royal College of Radiologists recommended.
• Involvement in a wide range of clinical trials and audit projects.
• Career development and potential for leadership in service delivery or education.

Person Specification:

Essential:

• MBBS or equivalent medical qualification
• GMC registration with a licence to practise
• Broad experience in Clinical Oncology
• Experience managing breast and/or skin malignancies
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
• Proven ability to work effectively within multi-professional teams

Desirable:

• Recognised postgraduate qualifications in academic oncology
• Experience in SABR and/or working within the NHS
• A track record of research with relevant publications or presentations
