ESNEFT is recruiting a Head of Radiotherapy Services to manage the Radiotherapy Departments at Colchester and Ipswich Hospitals.

To realise the full potential of an integrated radiotherapy service, the Trust is looking for a dynamic and forward thinking HCPC registered Therapeutic Radiographer who has recent management experience, to provide professional leadership of our radiotherapy services and drive forward service development and integration.

The service is staffed by multi-professional teams of clinical oncologists, therapeutic radiographers, clinical scientists, dosimetrists and engineers. The holistic needs of patients are met by nursing staff and Macmillan radiographers.

The hospitals are equipped with a total 7 Varian TrueBeam linear accelerators complimented by CT simulators, orthovoltage units, mould room facilities, Eclipse TPS and ARIA. VMAT, image guidance, respiratory gating and SABR treatments are delivered routinely. Gynaecological brachytherapy is delivered in Colchester with plans to expand the service for prostate and skin. A replacement TrueBeam will be commissioned in Ipswich in 2023 and a replacement CT has been procured for Colchester. A full equipment replacement and service development strategy is being drafted outlining the future configuration of treatment machines, imaging and ancillary equipment.

- Maintain clinical competence according to professional and regulatory guidance
- Take the strategic and managerial lead for delivering a united therapeutic radiography service across the two hospital sites
