Job description

Job summary: We would like to offer an opportunity for enthusiastic Radiologist who wish to develop their careers in our department's traditionally friendly, harmonious and supportive environment.

This is a substantive full-time appointment to support the Imaging services across UHDB. The post is based at the UHDB, mainly split between two major sites with acute care facilities (RDH and QHB).

Following expansion of our services associated with our successful Community Diagnostic Centres, we are looking to appoint Consultant Radiologists across multiple sub-speciality interests, in General Body, Breast and Gynae Imaging. The appointed candidate will work with a team of established specialist radiologists providing diagnostic imaging expertise in Radiology.

The University Hospitals of Derby and Burton NHS Foundation Trust have 54 Consultant Radiologists (part and full time). In addition, we have 18 Speciality Registrars on rotation from Nottingham and Leicester. The appointed consultant is expected to cover general reporting in addition to their sub-speciality work and participate on the diagnostic on call rota at the Royal Derby Hospital.

New Consultants are encouraged to support the Radiology Academy teaching programme utilising a purpose-built Academy.

We are keen to promote flexible working. Most Consultants have a full-time job plan which they work over 4 days. Virtually all of our consultant workforce have home reporting work stations and we can work together to achieve a mutually beneficial job plan which enhances the work life balance of any successful candidate.

Job responsibilities
