We will consider applications from candidates who are aiming for a specialist training number who would like more experience at this grade before national applicaton and also from candidates who are approaching / completed specilaist training either in the UK or overseas who wish to have further exposure to complex breast surgical proceedures and treatment planning in a large, busy, tertiary referral centre in the heart of London. Previous experience in breast surgery is required (to include one stop and basic treatment planning).


Barts Breast Unit is a tertiary referral centre for the treatment of breast disease and is part of Barts Health NHS Trust. The unit is located at St Bartholomew’s Hospital in the City of London which is a large state of the art cancer and cardiac centre. Outpatient clinics are undertaken in a purpose built unit with adjacent imaging and biopsy facilities. We offer the full range of breast procedures including oncoplastic breast conservation and mastectomy with immediate – and delayed – reconstruction. We are able to offer implant and LD flap reconstruction on site and cross site free-flap reconstruction at the Royal London Hospital.

Barts Health is one of the largest NHS trusts in the country, and one of Britain’s leading healthcare providers.

The Barts Health group of NHS hospitals is entering an exciting new era on our improvement journey to becoming an outstanding organisation with a world-class clinical reputation. Having lifted ourselves out of special measures, we now have the impetus and breathing space to chart a fresh course in which we are continually striving to improve all our services for patients.

Our vision is to be a high-performing group of NHS hospitals, renowned for excellence and innovation, and providing safe and compassionate care to our patients in east London and beyond. That means being a provider of excellent patient safety, known for delivering consistently high standards of harm-free care and always caring for patients in the right place at the right time. It also means being an outstanding place to work, in which our WeCare values and behaviours are visible to all and guide us in how we work together.

We strive to live by our WeCare values and are committed to promoting inclusion, where every staff member has a sense of belonging. We value our differences and fully advocate, cultivate and support an inclusive working environment.
