  • We provide a regional tertiary referral service for haematological malignancy, stem cell transplantation, thrombosis, haemostasis and haemoglobinopathies.
  • We provide general clinical haematology services for the local population of Central Manchester
  • We have an impressive clinical trials portfolio including phase 1-3 studies
  • Manchester Foundation Trust is the lead provider for Greater Manchester Haematological Cancer Diagnostic Partnership and also leads the North West Genomics Hub

We can offer:

  • Training in all aspects of haematology
  • Research and teaching opportunities

Candidates that are non-GMC registered at the point of application will be considered for this position, under the Trusts International Fellowship Scheme (please note, there is a £500 admin charge for this scheme). More information re this scheme can be found on our website – link in job description.
