Summary

A Vacancy at Barking Havering and Redbridge University Hospitals NHS Trust.

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join the Radiotherapy Department at BHRUT NHS Trust as a permanent Band 7 Therapeutic Radiographer Team Leader.

We are seeking an experienced, HCPC-registered Therapeutic Radiographer with excellent clinical, leadership and communication skills. The successful candidate will lead and support a team of radiographers, ensuring the safe, effective and efficient delivery of high-quality, patient-centred care while contributing to service development and workforce growth.

As a Team Leader, you will provide day-to-day operational leadership, supporting staff development, education, training and service improvement. You will work closely with multidisciplinary colleagues to maintain high clinical standards and deliver excellent patient care.

The department serves patients across East London and Essex and delivers advanced radiotherapy techniques including IMRT, VMAT, IGRT, DIBH, SRS, SABR and online adaptive radiotherapy. We are committed to innovation and have implemented Identify Surface Guided Radiotherapy (SGRT) across our treatment platforms.

Our facilities include:

• Edge with SRS/SABR capability
• Ethos with HyperSight and online adaptive radiotherapy
• Siemens Wide-Bore CT Scanner
• Identify SGRT
• ARIA, Eclipse and Ethos treatment systems
• Q-Pulse Quality Management System
• Varian Noona PRO App

Based at Queen's Hospital, Romford, this is an excellent opportunity to join a progressive and forward-thinking radiotherapy service.

• Accountable for own professional actions
• Be recognised and accessible as an expert and team leader in their specific field: promoting best practice, giving expert advice, delegating and disseminating knowledge to the profession and to the wider health care arena.
• Plan and deliver complex radiotherapy procedures to a wide range of benign and malignant conditions to a high level of accuracy. Use individual judgement on a daily basis to verify and maintain reproducible and precise treatment.
• Work within departmental protocols, deviating where necessary to reach sound conclusions and provide optimum care.
• Work autonomously within the legal, ethical and professional framework provided by the professional body.
• Generate new solutions to identify and best meet the needs of the patient.

We’re an organisation that is getting better and better and our improvements are driven by a determination to deliver care we’re proud of and our patients are happy with.

They are benefitting from a new electronic patient record (we were the last acute trust in London to introduce one) and our maternity services have been rated good by the Care Quality Commission.

We operate from two main sites – KGH in Goodmayes and Queen’s Hospital in Romford. We have two busy emergency departments with more than 346,000 people visiting them last year. We’re campaigning to secure the £35m we need to transform the A&E at Queen’s and get rid of corridor care.

We’re proud of our regional Neurosciences Centre, Radiotherapy Centre and Hyper Acute Stroke Unit. We’re also part of the North East London Cancer Alliance.

We run a Women’s Health Hub in Ilford; an Ageing Well Centre in Hornchurch; and Community Diagnostic Centres (CDC) at Barking Community Hospital and at St George’s Health and Wellbeing Hub. These CDCs are open 12 hours a day, 7 days a week.

The majority of our 8,400 staff – who come from 146 different countries - live in the three diverse London boroughs we serve and are from black, Asian and minority ethnic groups. Many can work flexibly and more than 400 of them are on our Ofsted accredited apprenticeship programmes. We’re proud to be a London Living Wage employer.
