The department is currently experiencing significant transformation under the guidance of the new Head of Operational Workforce and the Radiotherapy Lead Manager, who are implementing new initiatives aimed at supporting our exceptional Radiographers in their professional growth while fostering a culture of excellence and professionalism in all our endeavors.

The Radiotherapy service at QEHB, comprising approximately 100 staff members, delivers around 4500 new patients annually with top-tier radiotherapy treatments. Our service is recognized for its high standards, positioning us as a leading department that combines outstanding patient care with cutting-edge Radiotherapy technology, treating over 300 patients daily.

Successful candidates will join a department that administers one of the highest percentages of IG-IMRT treatments and manages a substantial number of SABR patients across all commissioned indications.

You will become part of a team that is deeply committed to the development of radiographers, with opportunities for staff to showcase their work at esteemed conferences such as ESTRO and UKIO.

Key Responsibilities

As a highly skilled radiographer, you will oversee a treatment unit and lead a team of radiographers to ensure the delivery of safe and precise specialized radiotherapy treatments.

You will manage a clinical workload, ensuring that all treatments and procedures are executed safely and accurately, upholding high standards of technical and patient care. There is an expectation to operate at an advanced level, promoting best practices and providing expert advice, support, and guidance to junior staff and the multidisciplinary team.

Additionally, you will collaborate with the broader band 7 team on operational matters within the department and staff-related issues, as well as provide mentoring and coaching to facilitate the development of junior staff. You will also be responsible for conducting 1:1 meetings, appraisals, and work programs to support their professional growth.

As Team Supervisors, flexibility in working hours is essential to meet service demands, including the ability to cover extended hours from Monday to Friday until 8 PM. There is also a requirement to work on bank holidays and occasionally on weekends.

This is an exceptional opportunity to join the Radiotherapy team at UHB and contribute to shaping the department and the future of its personnel.
