Locum Consultant in Dermatology – 12-month contract (Maternity leave cover commencing October 2026). We are seeking a Locum Consultant in Dermatology to join our friendly, supportive team, which includes 11 consultants, a consultant/associate specialist, two specialist registrars on the Yorkshire rotation, hospital practitioners, a Physician Associate, GP trainees, Advanced Nurse Practitioners in skin cancer, and specialist nursing teams for chronic disease and skin cancer.
Our service has dedicated dermatology theatres and facilities for PDT, phototherapy and patch testing, with day case theatres available for complex surgical procedures. Nurse-led services include dermatological surgery, leg ulcer and lymphoedema management, cryotherapy, drug monitoring, skin cancer diagnosis and follow-up. The skin cancer CNS team supports patients through follow-up clinics, and the department works closely with Maxillofacial Surgery, Plastic Surgery and Rheumatology.
The post is primarily based at York Teaching Hospital, delivering general dermatology services across York, Selby, Scarborough, Bridlington and Malton. An active teledermatology service supports advice and guidance and new patient referral triage. In-patient services are provided at York and Scarborough through a daytime dermatology on call rota, supported by electronic referrals and remote review.
This role provides general/specialist outpatient clinics and surgical lists plus contributing to the consultant on call rota. Outpatient clinics are at York Hospital and one peripheral East Coast hospital. You will join a well-established and collaborative department, focused on excellent, person-centred care.
Within the Trust we are part of Clinical Support and Cancer Services Care Group, which includes most specialist medicine services. We have a Clinical Director responsible for all services. Individual job plans will be discussed with the post holder on appointment, with the Clinical Director to finalise the job plan which will become operational on commencement. All jobs’ plans are agreed in line with the Trusts Job Planning Principles.
As a department we are committed to supporting flexible job plans and will work with you to mutually agree your activity commitment. We have opportunities to explore teaching, research and quality improvement projects to enhance our service. We strive to support your leadership and development in role and would be keen to discuss development pathways and subspecialty interests; ensuring activity is allocated within your job plan to achieve this.
We offer a range of benefits to support our staff including:
- Access to the NHS Pension Scheme, providing generous benefits upon retirement, as well as a lump sum and pension for dependants
- 27 days holiday rising to 33 days (depending on NHS Trust service)
- A variety of different types of paid and unpaid leave covering emergency and planned leave
- Confidential advice and support on personal, work, family and relationship issues, 24/7, from our Employee Assistance Programme
- NHS Car Lease scheme and Cycle to Work scheme

This post is a fixed term post based at primarily York Hospital and one East Coast peripheral Hospital. The specific job plan for this post will be discussed in detail with the post holder on appointment. A full-time post is likely to consist of 5-6 outpatient clinics a week (which may be a mix of general clinics, surgical lists, telephone / teledermatology clinics and special interest clinics and can be adapted as appropriate on discussion). Travel time to peripheral hospitals will be supported within the job plan.
In addition, there is a once a month joint difficult cases clinic and weekly skin cancer multidisciplinary meetings. You will also contribute to the daytime Dermatology on call rota that supports both York and Scarborough inpatients. The successful applicant will have secretarial support and office accommodation.
