## Job Content

### Job overview

Applications are invited for two full-time locum consultant gynaecologist posts.

Applicants are required to have CCT or equivalent (or within 6 months of their expected date of receipt of a CCT at the time of interview), and entry on the GMC Specialist Register in Obstetrics and Gynaecology with full GMC registration and MRCOG (or equivalent).

Applicants must have the skills to perform complex benign gynaecological surgery and have completed the ATSM of “Benign Abdominal Surgery: Open and Laparoscopic” or “Advanced Laparoscopic Surgery for the Excision of Benign Disease”, or SITM of “Gynaecological Surgical Care: Management of Complex Non-malignant Disease”. In addition, the department needs the following skills: Endometriosis Surgery, Colposcopy, Operative Hysteroscopy, Ultrasound scanning, and Management of Vulval Disease.

### Main duties of the job

These posts are developed to complement the existing consultants, expand and strengthen the skilled workforce, and meet the sustained growth of gynaecological service demands. Demand for gynaecology services has increased due to rising referrals, population change, and delayed care. These posts will help increase capacity across outpatients, diagnostics, procedures, and theatres, reducing waiting times and clinical risk.

The post-holders will be joining a dynamic and dedicated team of gynaecologists, which is committed to delivering excellent service for women. They will cover operating lists, outpatient clinics and gynaecology on-call rota at the frequency agreed by the directorate. Although there are no obstetrics commitments, the post holders are expected to support the on-call consultant obstetricians upon request. They will also have the opportunity to conduct clinical research and engage in medical education through our strong links with the University of Birmingham and the University of Aston.

### Detailed job description and main responsibilities

These posts are hosted by Sandwell & West Birmingham NHS Trust. The post-holders are expected to work flexibly on three sites, including Midlands Metropolitan University Hospital (MMUH), City Health Campus and Sandwell Health Campus.
