Principal Pharmacist

1 week ago

London, Greater London, United Kingdom King's College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Job overview

An opportunity has arisen for enthusiastic, knowledgeable and motivated Band 7 radiographers to join the Neuroradiology team at King's College Hospital.

The Neuroradiology department at King's is one of the busiest in the UK, providing specialised imaging services to the population of South East London and Kent. King's is a major trauma centre with the only 24 hour helicopter service in London, and a hyper-acute stroke centre.

The department has 3 Siemens MRI scanners, including a brand new 3T system. We carry out specialised MRI studies such as advanced tumour imaging, perfusion scanning, spectroscopy and functional imaging, in addition to scans under general anaesthetic for both adult and paediatric patients.

In our bi-plane interventional suite, radiographers are an integral part of the team, participating in neurovascular treatments such as coil embolization of cerebral aneurysms, and mechanical thrombectomy for acute stroke. The thrombectomy service has recently been extended to provide 24/7 access to this vital intervention.

The neuroradiographers also provide imaging support within neuro theatres, where a 3D rotational C-arm is used for complex spinal navigation, and an O-arm is utilised for precise stereotactic brain surgery.

Main duties of the job

As a senior neuroradiographer, you will rotate through all of the above modalities - managing the day-to-day workload; teaching and mentoring junior staff members; working within the multi-modality team and liaising with internal and external service users to provide an efficient and patient-focused service. MRI expertise is essential, and CT or angiography experience is desirable.

A staff consultation was recently completed and agreement reached to move towards a 7-day working model. Weekend and night shift working will be a requirement.

You will be an experienced radiographer, able to manage and prioritise the daily caseload, and to ensure provision of the highest standards of patient care. You will be able to work autonomously, consulting senior staff as and when necessary, giving advice and guidance to patients and other health care professionals.

You will be expected to take a lead role in the supervision and teaching of Band 6 Radiographers, Helpers, and Student Radiographers as appropriate.

You will be actively involved in daily operation of the Department, working closely within a multidisciplinary team and deputise for the Clinical Specialist Radiographers in their absence.
