Job description

Overview

This post is for a General Cross Radiologist with Subspecialist interest in Breast Radiology to compliment the department. The appropriate clinical skills and knowledge will be expected.

You will join the other radiologists sharing the provision for general on‑call service out of hours and work alongside our current Breast Imaging Radiologist. CT reporting is outsourced overnight 7 days a week (8pm-8am weekdays and 5pm-9am weekends/bank holidays). Currently our Radiology Doctors have the facility to undertake home reporting with dedicated AGFA workstations and VR dictation facilities provided for all current and future Radiologists.

The timetable of Radiologists commitments is regularly reviewed and adjusted to meet the changing needs of the Trust, service and staff. A timetable will be allocated to the appointee according to their skillset and the needs of the department.

There’s never been a more exciting time to join TeamQEH. We're working on a once in a generation opportunity to build a new state‑of‑the‑art hospital and we are also carrying out on one of the biggest pieces of digital transformation work we've ever undertaken. Our new electronic patient record (EPR) will replace paper‑based patient records from 2026 and will lead to better, safer, joined‑up care at The Queen Elizabeth Hospital and beyond.

At The QEH we provide a comprehensive range of specialist, acute, obstetrics and community‑based services to around 331,000 people across west and north Norfolk, North Cambs and South Lincs. We are an ambitious organisation that upholds our values of kindness, wellness and fairness. We strive for continuous quality improvement, recently demonstrated in our 2024 CQC maternity inspection rating our services as ‘Good’, and we are proud to be a place to learn and grow through recognised learning and apprenticeships.

We recognise and reward our 4,000 staff and volunteers, priding ourselves on a community atmosphere and positive team spirit. We have approx. 530 beds across 33 wards and have newly built education and training facilities, a range of modern award‑winning centres alongside a talented team of people ready to give you a warm welcome. We love working here and think you will too.

Responsibilities

To undertake programmed activities in breast imaging and general radiology. Opportunities for development of the existing service will be supported where they reflect and support the needs of the local population and the development plans of the trust.

To contribute to the cancer two‑week wait service and participate in symptomatic breast one‑stop clinics and other relevant activity. To contribute to the work of the national breast screening service by ensuring adequate film reading numbers, participation in screening assessment and other relevant activity.

To work closely with the breast clinicians, breast care nurses, breast pathologists and breast surgeons. To lead/take part in multi‑disciplinary team meetings. To support and participate in audit, research, teaching and administration.

To undertake a reasonable or allocated share of the routine/urgent reporting (MRI, CT and plain films) and performing fluoroscopic studies and ultrasound. Remote reporting where required, Admin & Clerical staff may be required to act as Loggists for a major incident.

Everyone within the Trust has or will shortly need to have a minimum level of skill for computer literacy for their day‑to‑day work as we become more digitally mature. Therefore all staff should be computer literate.

Benefits

• Flexible working opportunities
• Free counselling service
• NHS Pension scheme
