Job overview

The post holder’s duties will be primarily at the West Wing and John Radcliffe Hospital but it is a condition of the appointment that the post holder will be willing to work in any of the Trust’s locations. This post is intended to support cross site working in the subspecialty of head and neck imaging and it is anticipated that some direct clinical care sessions will take place at the Churchill Hospital.

Main duties of the job

This post is partially required to meet ever increasing demand for diagnostic neuroradiology services, but also to further the unique strength in subspecialisation within the consultant team as regards head and neck/ENT imaging. The Neuroradiology Department in Oxford is one of few where head and neck imaging has historically been a component of neuroradiology workload, and this remains the current position

Detailed job description and main responsibilities

The successful applicant will thus undertake all aspects of general adult diagnostic neuroradiology and head and neck imaging, including neck diagnostic ultrasound and ultrasound guided neck biopsies and will need to demonstrate professional excellence and the ability to deliver effective care. This is an excellent opportunity to join a close-knit effective team, and in addition to supporting the diagnostic radiology services, there should be the opportunity to develop further areas of special interest and to take an active interest in research and development and teaching.

Applicant requirements

You must have appropriate UK professional registration.

This post is subject to the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975 (Amendment) (England and Wales) Order 2020 and it will be necessary for a submission for Disclosure to be made to the Disclosure and Barring Service.
