Job description

NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde is one of the largest healthcare systems in the UK, employing around 40,000 staff across various clinical and non-clinical roles. We provide acute hospital, primary, community, and mental health services to a population of over 1.15 million, expanding to 2.2 million with regional and national services.

This position offers an opportunity to work within the largest health board in Scotland.

Our team is a dynamic, multidisciplinary group equipped with state-of-the-art facilities, including FFD mammography, new ultrasound equipment (GE), stereotactic tables, and digital tomosynthesis for patient assessment.

The job plan may adapt to service changes, including inpatient service rationalization, and cross-cover responsibilities will be negotiated within acceptable limits.
