POST: CONSULTANT CLINICAL/MEDICAL ONCOLOGIST

BASE: BEATSON WEST OF SCOTLAND CANCER CENTRE

The Beatson West of Scotland Cancer Centre (WoSCC), is seeking to appoint a Consultant Oncologists with an initial sub-specialist interest in urological cancers. There will be an opportunity for successful applicants to negotiate different sub specialist interests post-appointment. These posts will also contribute leadership and development input into the newly opened Acute Oncology Assessment Unit within the Beatson West of Scotland Cancer Centre. This post is open to both medical oncology and clinical oncology applicants.

The new Beatson West of Scotland Cancer Centre (BWoSCC) opened in May 2007, completing a state of the art comprehensive cancer centre that has cost £110 million. It is Scotland’s largest cancer centre, and the second largest in the UK. The centre has undergone unprecedented investment and our clinical teams deliver oncology services to a catchment population of 2.9 million people across 4 Health Board areas. The centre is part of the CRUK virtual comprehensive cancer treatment and research centre which also includes the Beatson Institute for Cancer Research and Translational Research Centre. It incorporates the Regional Haemato-oncology Autologous Transplant Unit and the National Allogeneic Transplant Service for haematological malignancies for Scotland

The Beatson West of Scotland Cancer Centre (BWoSCC) is superbly equipped with 11 linear accelerators, the majority of which incorporate facilities for VMAT and on- board imaging (OBI). There are 2 recently installed state-of-the-art Varian TrueBeamTM units, with 1 more shortly to be commissioned. These facilities have allowed a dynamic, “can-do” approach to the development of new treatment techniques. The centre has recently launched high intensity mode (24 Gy/min) VMAT for stereotactic intracranial radiosurgery and for lung stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR), both firsts for the UK. In addition, VMAT has become a well established routine treatment for all radical head and neck, brain and prostate.

We anticipate VMAT becoming the treatment of choice at the centre for most radical radiotherapy within the next 12 months. There are exciting programmes underway to establish the technique for gynaecological, colo-rectal, lung treatment and prostate SABR. Supporting these developments is an expanding IGRT programme with facilities for CBCT, 4DCT, on-site MRI and PET/CT. 4DCT imaging is offered routinely for lung, and, driven by local clinical interest, will shortly be introduced for pancreas and breast. Imaging is supported by 3 CT Simulators and 1 conventional simulator.

The centre has a generously equipped brachytherapy facility with dedicated theatre and 2 HDR treatment units. On-site MRI is used to facilitate imaged-guided brachytherapy for cervix. There is an established LDR seed programme for prostate.

The Beatson is an internationally renowned academic centre, with Professors of Medical Oncology, Gyneacological Oncology Clinical Oncology, Translational Research and Surgical Oncology currently in post. Professor Karen Vousden leads a renowned CRUK core-funded program of research at the internationally competitive Beatson Institute for Cancer Research. In addition, the Beatson West of Scotland Cancer Centre Clinical Research Unit is the largest of its kind to be funded by Cancer Research UK. The unit offers support to all clinicians within the BWoSCC to initiate and conduct first-in man clinical trials. The unit has a large portfolio of Phase I-III studies across the range of cancer sub- specialties and has a particular interest in the development of new anti-cancer drugs, supported by designated staff and facilities for Phase I/Early Phase II clinical trials. The unit also houses Scotland’s first ever co-ordinating centre for the National Cancer Research Institute.

Glasgow has excellent schools, public transport and recreational facilities.

You should be appropriately experienced and qualified in the specialty, fully registered with the GMC and have a licence to practice. Those trained in the UK should have evidence of higher specialist training leading to CCT or eligibility for specialist registration (CESR) or be within 6 months of confirmed entry from date of Interview. Non UK applicants must demonstrate equivalent training. NHS GREATER GLASGOW & CLYDE

The Beatson West of Scotland Cancer Centre (BWoSCC) is superbly equipped with 11 linear accelerators, the majority of which incorporate facilities for VMAT and on-board imaging (OBI). There are 2 recently installed state-of-the-art Varian TrueBeamTM units, with 1 more shortly to be commissioned.
