Birmingham Women's and Children's NHS Foundation Trust View all jobs
Posted 1 month(s) ago
Reference: 284-26-8157491-DMUT
Job summary
We are looking for a caring and motivated individual to join our genomics team as a Genomic Associate. This exciting, newly established role within the Genomic Counselling work stream will help facilitate genetic counselling and testing for patients with rare diseases and their family members.
The Genomics Associate is responsible for facilitating the collection of information, consent, samples and test results and helping to co-ordinate care for patients and families. Working within the clinical genetics department, the varied role will involve communicating with patients and their families directly by phone, video call and face to face to obtain family and medical histories to facilitate the diagnosis of genetic and genomic conditions. It will include obtaining appropriate samples for genetic testing and recording consent for these where appropriate.
The genomic associate will also help to facilitate access to the service, particularly amongst marginalised communities and families who are difficult to engage. Other roles include facilitating patient support days and patient engagement events. The role also includes co-ordinating multidisciplinary meetings and occasional education events for professionals.
Main duties of the job
Applicants from a range of backgrounds and experiences are welcomed. The post would suit an individual with significant clinical or administrative experience in the NHS who is confident communicating with patients and families sensitively. It would also provide an opportunity for an individual aspiring to train as a genetic counsellor to gain relevant experience in the field. A caring and compassionate nature and attention to detail is essential. Knowledge of genetics, family histories, child development and NHS systems would be advantageous.

Posted 1 month(s) ago
Reference: 284-26-8193258-DPBC
Job summary
The Birmingham Women's and Children's Hospital Foundation Trust is seeking to recruit experienced cardiac surgeons to join the middle-grade cardiac surgery team on fixed term contracts, with posts available for 6-24 months.
The applicant will join the existing team of cardiac surgical middle grade staff at Birmingham Children's Hospital, working on a 1:4 on-call rota.
Posts are available to start from October 2026 - April 2028
Applicants must possess GMC registration and License to Practice, or have acquired the requisite scores in the IELTS or OET to be eligible for GMC registration. The position is not recognised for training. Applicants from outside the UK not in possession of the requisite IELTS certificate to prove proficiency in English will not be shortlisted.
Main duties of the job
The fellow will assist in the operating theatre and perform some procedures under supervision, perform invasive procedures on the ICU, organize weekly MDT meetings, organize operating lists, conduct surgical rounds on the cardiology wards, and support the out-patient post-operative nurse-led clinic.
The on-call rota has been altered to comply with the provisions of the New Junior Doctors' Contract. There is a 1:4 non-resident rota, with the on-call fellow on-site until 2230. After this the Fellow may be off-site on condition that s/he can access the ICU within 15 minutes.
On-call commitments are principally in the day-to-day management of post-operative cases on the ICU, presentation on ICU rounds, conducting business rounds on the wards, organizing the operating list for the next day, and liaising between ICU and surgical teams. The fellow is expected to take an active role in the joint management of ICU cases, including those on ECLS.
The Adult Congenital Heart Disease Service is based at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham, and fellows will have the opportunity to participate in the fortnightly MDT and the weekly operating list. Fellows have no on-call duties at the QE Hospital.
