## Job Content

### Job overview

The Trust wishes to appoint a Consultant Dermatologist with a specialist interest in cutaneous lymphoma. Liverpool University Hospitals Foundation Trust is one of the largest teaching hospital trusts in the country.

The role will be based at the Broadgreen site and the successful applicant will work alongside members of the Dermatology department which sits under the Broadgreen site management team. The working pattern is up to full-time (10 PAs) although applications from those wishing to work fewer sessions are also welcome. The job plan will be in line with those of substantive consultants in the department. It will include a component of Advice & Guidance and lesional teledermatology.

The post-holder will be expected to contribute to undergraduate teaching during clinical sessions.

### Main duties of the job

The Consultant will share in the provision of out-patient and in-patient adult dermatology services in Liverpool.

The Consultant will be expected to take over dermatology perspective of the cutaneous lymphoma service. This is a regional multidisciplinary service working closely with the haematologists/oncologists at UHLG and Clatterbridge Cancer Centre. There will be an initial period of supervised experience over the first year, with monthly clinics alongside a dermatologist experienced in cutaneous lymphoma care. It will then be expected that the appointed consultant will take over the service with clinics likely to increase to fortnightly.

The post holder will have continuing responsibility for the care of their patients as well as the functioning of the department in conjunction with the other Consultants and colleagues. Prospective cover is arranged with Consultant colleagues during annual or study leave.

The post-holder will have equal admitting rights with consultant colleagues to the secondary care in-patient beds and day-case facility at Broadgreen Hospital. The responsible consultant is expected to undertake a minimum of two ward rounds/week for their in-patients. There is no Consultant of the week ward cover (except for on call) so essentially the successful applicant will look after their own in-patients (+/- prospective cover patients if relevant).
