Chief Cardiac Physiologist Echo

3 months ago


Stevenage, Hertfordshire, United Kingdom East and North Hertfordshire NHS Trust Full time

Due to the need for a full 7 day service initiative an opportunity has arisen for further Band 7 Chief Cardiac Physiologists in Echo to join our friendly and dynamic team.

We are looking for individuals that can participate in leading the Echo service and work with the Lead Physiologist to help develop this ever expanding service.

The Echocardiography service offers adult trans-thoracic echocardiography 7 days a week. We support routine outpatient and inpatient TTE's and a Consultant led TOE, Exercise and Pharmacological Stress echo service.

We have recently developed a Herceptin clinic for Oncology patients and are looking to set up a Valve clinic working alongside the Specialist Nurses and Physicians.


The Echo team are heavily involved in staff training with a strong development program in place for both Physiologist's and Cardiology Registrars which has resulted in a high success rate for Accreditation.

We also hold weekly Echo meetings which are supported by the Imaging Consultants


Our echo equipment is all due for renewal this year and we are currently reviewing the latest technology as part of our procurement process.


Applicants who have considerable experience in echo but do not yet have Accreditation would be considered on a Band 6, with expectation of obtaining Accreditation following our training programme, leading to a Band 7 post.


The post holder will work in co-operation with the Lead Cardiac Physiologist and Cardiology Consultants to ensure operational delivery of the highest standards of patient care in both standard and advanced echocardiography.


As a Chief Cardiac Physiologist you will be required to work as an advanced independent practitioner in echocardiography, providing highly specialised technical services that impact directly upon the clinical management of patients.


As part of the role you would be expected to train in advanced imaging modalities such as stress echo, 3D echo, TOE, speckle tracking and strain analysis.


You will be responsible for organising and delivering theoretical and practical training in cardiac physiology to a wide range of staff.

Also, be responsible for supporting and encouraging both medical and physiologist staff to work towards professional accreditation (BSE).

The post holder will support and participate in the 24/7 service.

The post holder will maintain a high standard of clinical practise and will act as a role model for junior members of staff within the cardiology departments.

You must be willing to rotate when required to all sites across the East and North Hertfordshire Trust.


At East and North Hertfordshire NHS Trust, we are proud of the range of general and specialist services we provide and our 6,000 or so dedicated staff ensure our patients get the best care.

Our ability to be flexible and innovative in the way in which we work and deliver our services to our catchment has never been more important than it is now.


We run the following hospitals:

  • The Lister Hospital, Stevenage
  • New Queen Elizabeth II (New QEII), Welwyn Garden City
  • Hertford County, Hertford
  • Mount Vernon Cancer Centre (MVCC), Northwood


We have ambitious plans to become an outstanding, patient-led Trust where dedicated staff provide high-quality, compassionate care to our patients.

We continue to undergo significant transformation and our staff and patients are at the heart of delivering this ambitious agenda.
