We will support flexible working hours and will also support any special interest you may wish to develop within the NHS Framework. We are also committed to support any quality improvement projects you may wish to do as part of service improvement within Dermatology.

With the introduction of the Mid Essex Hospitals NHS Trust, it is likely that the post holder will be required to provide some services across multiple hospital sites.

The department has aspirations to develop into a regional Dermatology specialist centre. Sub-specialist services currently provided include Paediatric Dermatology, Allergy, Dermatological surgery and Dermatopathology, and the department is in the process of developing MOHs Micrographic Surgery.

As a developing regional service Dermatology occupies a prominent position within the management structure of the Trust and has enjoyed significant investment in staffing and facilities over the past 10 years. With further expansion of the catchment area there is scope to further develop the general and sub specialist aspects of the service.

Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust is now one of the largest trusts in the country, serving a population of 1.2 million people. Our newly formed Trust, comprising acute hospital sites at Broomfield in Chelmsford, Basildon and Southend, is determined to provide the best health services for its local population. We are a well-led, high-performing and innovative organisation working in the best interests of the people we serve.

With a workforce of approximately 15,000 staff, we can now do more and go further in delivering health services to our local communities.

Our ambition is to deliver excellent local and specialist services, to improve the health and wellbeing of our patients, and provide a vibrant place for staff to develop, innovate and build careers.

We look forward to your application. Please refer to attached Job Description for full list of responsibilities.
