Our Ultrasound service is located within the Diagnostics Department at Practice Plus Group Diagnostics in Buckinghamshire, in the market town of High Wycombe. Located on the edge of the Chiltern hills, High Wycombe is conveniently situated close to the M40 with good train links to Oxford and London.

The centre is open 7 days a week between 8am and 7pm, which allows us to offer extremely flexible working hours that could include weekends and evenings if it suits you, or just standard weekdays. There are also no on-call responsibilities, improving your work-life balance!

We have 5 ultrasound rooms running clinics each day, so there is always support from other sonographers when you need it. We have state-of-the-art Canon ultrasound systems, which are updated regularly.

This year marks the start of our self-referral private pay service in MRI, Ultrasound, and USGIs, which we would love you to be part of.

• An appropriate post-graduate qualification in Medical Ultrasound.
• Ability to work as an independent practitioner, performing scans to a high diagnostic standard, prioritising workload, formulating a comprehensive, accurate report, and communicating the results via the agreed method to clinicians/patients.
• Proficiency in General, Gynae, Abdominal, and small parts with MSK desirable but not essential.
• Excellent communication and organisational skills and represent the values of Practice Plus Group.

In return, we offer:

• Salary up to £68,000 per annum depending on experience and hours.
• Flexible working hours.
• No on-call.
• Extensive range of health and well-being benefits.
