Applicants are invited to apply for a Consultant position in Cellular Pathology at Milton Keynes University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.

We have 2 posts available, one is a replacement following retirement, and one is a new additional consultant post, to support increase in demand, each offering 10 programmed activities.

This post completes a team of seven consultant histopathologists. The post is full-time, and applicants who, for personal reasons, are unable to work full-time are also eligible to apply. If such a person is appointed, modification of the job content will be discussed on a personal basis with the Trust, in consultation with consultant colleagues.

The post holder will be contracted to provide histopathology and non-gynaecological cytology services at Milton Keynes Hospital Foundation Trust, alongside colleagues in Cellular Pathology. There will be opportunities for teaching, and this will include Cellular Pathology Speciality Trainees from the Oxford rotation and Buckingham University Medical Students.

Coroner’s autopsies at Milton Keynes are arranged by an external provider. There may be an opportunity to join the Coroner’s autopsy rota, subject to discussion, but this is not an essential requirement.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
