The trust has ambitious plans to rebuild the Watford site and also build a dedicated Urology Centre housing out-patient clinics, diagnostic and administrative support services, providing state-of-the-art facilities for both staff and patients.

 The post is designed to provide support to existing core urology services. A specialist interest in renal robotic surgery, or female and functional urology is an advantage, but not essential.  Other candidates with a subspecialist interest will be considered if their skills and experience suit our growing department.  The successful candidate will partake in a 1 in 7 Consultant of the week rota where the usual elective commitments are cancelled. There is 24-hour middle grade support. You will be well supported by colleagues who work as part of a cohesive team and who will encourage opportunities to enter leadership roles.

There has never been a more exciting time to join West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust!  The Trust is in line to receive government funding for major redevelopment works. Plans include a new building at Watford General Hospital to house all clinical services with our hospitals at Hemel Hempstead and St Albans being refurbished throughout.   Each of our three hospitals will have a clearer role and a higher level of specialist care.  This is a unique chance to be at the forefront of national efforts to transform how healthcare is provided for local people. Our hugely experienced project team of senior clinicians, architects, planners and construction experts have shaped our plans which embrace the latest best practice, including advances in design and digital healthcare. The Trust is delighted to Teaching Hospital status in recognition of its wide and well-renowned role in educating doctors, nurses and other healthcare professionals. We have recently opened a multi-storey car park at Watford General Hospital with electric car charging services.  We encourage and welcome people with disabilities. If you need help, please ask.
