We are seeking either a Full-time permanent role or Permanent Part Time Consultant to join our team of specialists. You will be working alongside twenty other Consultant Anatomical Pathologists, supported by a skilled team of laboratory scientists, administrative support, and seven registrars.
The department has an internationally diverse workforce who have made New Zealand their home.
The department receives a wide range of specimens from all subspecialty areas and provides histology and cytology services across Canterbury and the West Coast regions, as well as a tertiary referral service and multidisciplinary team support for the South Island more broadly.
Pathologists have access to a wide range of IHC stains, diagnostic molecular pathology (NGS and FISH), and surface marker flow cytometry techniques within the laboratory.
The AP Department is based in the University of Otago - School of Medicine and actively supports training of medical students.
Some pathologists hold joint academic roles with options to pursue research interests.
Preference will be given to applicants with a broad general pathology background, but an interest in any of the following areas would be viewed favourably: dermatopathology, gastrointestinal pathology, soft tissue, genitourinary pathology, neuropathology, or non-gynaecological cytology.
Mentoring will be available for a less experienced candidate who wishes to further develop areas of practice at the subspecialty level.
Participation will be required within an On-Call service, shared across the consultant team. There is no requirement of this role to complete hospital post-mortems.
