The post holder might also be responsible for providing non‑complex local anaesthesia vascular access procedures and undertaking outpatient clinics at our outreach clinic based at Aintree University Hospital. Out of hours these patients will be the responsibility of the core Renal Transplant on‑call consultant and registrar team based at the main site (Royal).

Applicants should be on the GMC Specialist Register via CCT, CESR or European Community Rights, with the proposed CCT/CESR (CP) date within 6 months of interview.

Audit, Education & Training – The Trust has an excellent Education Centre providing modern facilities. There are well‑established audit and research programmes in collaboration with members of a wide range of clinical departments. Opportunities to participate in collaborative audit and/or research are available, subject to discussion with the Clinical Director. Funding is available for research projects from regional and local monies. The appointee will be expected to participate in undergraduate teaching for any medical and dental students attached to the Transplant Unit, as well as play an active role in postgraduate teaching.

Continuing Professional Development – The Trust supports the requirements for continuing professional development (CPD) as laid down by the GMC and surgical colleges and is committed to providing time and financial support for these activities. On appointment, the successful applicant will also be allocated a mentor for support.

Revalidation – The Trust has the required arrangements in place to ensure that all surgeons have an annual appraisal with a trained appraiser and supports surgeons going through the revalidation process.

Equity – The Trust recognises that surgical working requires good team working and the role of each Consultant is intended to be an equal senior to other Consultants in the Department and in the Trust. The Trust will ensure that the postholder’s needs for support are met and that the job plan created is sustainable in the long term.

Management – The Directorate holds monthly meetings to discuss all aspects of management and clinical governance. The post holder is encouraged to attend these meetings. The service also undergoes a regular performance review as part of the governance arrangements and is monitored against local and national standards.
