Detailed job description and main responsibilities

There are specialist endocrine services delivered by Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust including the pituitary service, which has close links to Leeds Teaching Hospitals (tertiary centre for neurosurgery); this has scope for development including attending the regional pituitary MDT (currently virtual). There is a service for patients presenting with adrenal adenomas with the Endocrine Specialist Nurses completing a protocol, this needs to be developed further including attending local and regional MDTs.

The appointee will be expected to take an active interest in clinical governance, maintaining medical excellence and management and service development. Clinical audit is a mandatory requirement within the Trust and the appointee will be expected to attend and participate in audit and clinical governance.

The appointee will be encouraged to take part in the administration of CME and to accrue the number of CME credits determined by the Royal College of Physicians.
