Job summary

We are currently recruiting for a Consultant in Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery based at the Royal Surrey NHS Foundation Trust with a specialist interest in the management and treatment of Skin Cancer.

The Royal Surrey is very proud to have an enthusiastic and dynamic team in the unit of Maxillofacial Surgery, Orthodontics & Restorative Dentistry who share a common goal in these aligned medical and dental specialties. This allows us to provide excellent clinical care alongside promoting and supporting the professional development of senior and junior colleagues throughout the unit.

We look forward to your application and hope we can soon welcome you to our team.

Main duties of the job

All of the senior staff within the department have sub-specialist interests and leadership roles within the department as well as the wider trust. These include regional and national roles in post-graduate training, examinerships for the Royal Colleges for ISFE and specialty membership exams and regular involvement in post-graduate training for both maxillofacial and dental specialist trainees. The department has developed and published optimised pathways for the enhanced recovery for head and neck cancer patients and is also involved in current work around digital treatment planning and workflows to enhance surgical outcomes and case planning.
