Starting on October 2026initially for one year and likely extendable.

Royal Surrey Foundation Trust is an internationally renowned training centre for minimal access surgery and is the largest centre for robotic surgery in the UK. The Gynaecological oncology team has pioneered the use of robotics for the management of endometrial, cervical and ovarian cancers in the UK and has an excellent reputation for education & training, data analysis & research.

The research component of the posts will be undertaken between the Royal Surrey and Brunel University. The clinical work at the Royal Surrey will be at ST6 level, with each fellow spending two full days of clinical work per week at the hospital, including ward and clinic work as well as regular theatre sessions. This will include robotic surgery and prior training and experience as a robotic surgical first assistance would be highly desirable.

Main duties of the job

This fixed-term post, initially for one year and likely extendable following successful review, is aimed at a career hospital doctor pursuing a career in Gynaecological oncology. This is not recognized as a training post and so UK O&G trainees would require OOPE or OOPR to be taken.

The department performs approximately 450 cancer operations per annum, of which approximately 180 are for ovarian cancer. The clinical workload is approximately half robotic and half open cancer surgery. Small numbers of complex benign tertiary referrals are also undertaken and risk-reducing surgery, mainly arising from the Gene Carrier Clinic which Mr. Tailor undertakes together with colleagues form clinical genetics and breast surgery. Close working relations are expected with the two other clinical fellows, four CNSs and secretarial and administrative team. The Consultants are readily available for support and advice and take part in a daily on call rota. The department embraces clinical research, audit, and service improvement initiatives.
