SYB Histopathology is transitioning to primary Digital reporting and applications from digitally trained pathologists are welcome.

We would welcome applications from candidates across the full spectrum of experience, from those who have recently completed training to those who have well-established careers.

Any candidate who is unable for personal reasons to work full-time will be eligible to be considered for the post; if such a person is appointed, modification of the job content will be discussed on a personal basis with the Trust in consultation with consultant colleagues.

The Consultant staff of the Histopathology Department are organised into subspecialist reporting teams. Our consultants typically practice in 1 - 3 subspecialist areas of practice in line with their interests and with the needs of the department. Direct Clinical Care (DCC) work includes appropriate dissection, histology and cytology reporting, and MDT preparation and delivery.

SYB Histopathology delivers laboratory and reporting activity within the SYB Pathology Service network, and beyond, and increases in such activity are anticipated as well as closer operational collaboration between the different SYB sites. Reporting work is distributed across the relevant subspecialist teams and treated uniformly regardless of the source.

Located on rolling hills and dissected by river valleys, Sheffield is one if the greenest and most wooded cities in Europe. More than a third of the city lies inside the beautiful Peak District National Park, and it is virtually surrounded by open countryside. Its central location and excellent transport links also means it is less than two hours from most major metropolitan areas.

This is an exceptional opportunity to join an award winning and internationally recognised team, with focus on innovation, research and high-quality care, as well as family friendly working, and we are keen to discuss with individuals about how we can support their ambitions.
