Employing pathologists
We work to maintain high standards in pathology by reviewing and approving consultant and SAS level job descriptions for both medical and scientific posts.
This page provides guidance and resources for employing bodies, HR teams and NHS trusts in appointing these roles. From here, you can access our free job description review service and request a College representative to attend appointment advisory committees (AACs).
For NHS trusts in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, our job description review service forms part of the statutory framework governing consultant appointments.
We also extend this service to other employing organisations outside the NHS, including foundation trusts.
