Job description

There is an exciting opportunity for two medical fellows to work within the department of Oncology at Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust. Initially, it is a 6-month fixed-term contract starting September 2025. These posts will form part of the postgraduate training rotation in clinical oncology and provide excellent learning opportunities in a supportive environment.

The roles are ideally suited for trainees wishing to pursue a career in oncology, post-MRCP Part II, but not yet in a training role. They may also suit potential CESR trainees, provided they have GMC registration and can work immediately in the UK. The posts offer considerable flexibility for doctors to choose their research or educational focus, allowing them to develop their CVs or clinical experience.

The successful candidates will gain experience in outpatient clinics, systemic anticancer treatments, and acute oncology inpatient services as part of a ward and on-call rota. The fellow will have the opportunity to tailor their role according to their educational needs and interests, whether through research, education delivery, or management/leadership skills development. While the role is best suited for individuals with prior oncology experience, it may also be suitable for trainees aiming to pursue a career in oncology post-MRCP Part II who are not yet in a training role.

The responsibilities include providing high-quality oncology patient care, engaging in research, teaching, and training, as well as performance management, medical staff management, governance, leadership, and team working.

At Imperial College Healthcare, you can achieve extraordinary things with extraordinary people, working alongside leading clinicians advancing patient care. Join a vibrant team that embodies our values—expertise, kindness, collaboration, and aspiration. This experience will accelerate your career development.

Benefits include career development opportunities, flexible working arrangements, wellbeing support, staff recognition schemes, and optional benefits such as Cycle to Work, car leasing, season ticket loans, and memberships for onsite leisure facilities.

We are committed to equal opportunities and improving staff working lives. We welcome applications for flexible, part-time, or job-share arrangements. Please discuss these options during the interview process.

The postholder must be medically qualified and hold GMC specialist registration, with responsibilities including:

• Developing and maintaining the competencies required for the role
• Ensuring prompt attendance at clinical activities
• Involving patients in their care decisions and responding to their views
• Collaborating with academic and clinical colleagues to enhance translational research, adhering to research governance
• Providing high-quality teaching to medical students and other healthcare professionals as directed by the clinical director
• Working with colleagues to ensure high performance in clinical efficiency, quality of outcomes, financial management, and operational efficiency
• Participating in clinical audits, incident reporting, and implementing resulting actions
• Collaborating with multidisciplinary team members and the wider medical community at ICHT
