This post is for a 12 month fixed term post ST1-3 level Trust Grade Doctor in Oncology with dedicated time allocated to professional development. This is a full time post of which 80% will be direct clinical care and 20% allocated to professional development and service improvement. It is anticipated that the successful candidate will use this time appropriate to their stage of training. ST1-2 trainees will be expected to undertake relevant audit and quality improvement projects during their time in Oncology alongside medical professional development. ST3 trainees may choose to undertake more specific Oncology training and experience including site-specific outpatient clinic and MDT experience.

It offers a unique opportunity to expand clinical skills and experience alongside development of broader professional skills. It will be of exceptional benefit to those considering a career in Oncology, but offers fantastic opportunities for development of skills and experience across a broad range of medicine.
