About the role

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a consultant radiologist to join our team at Barking, Havering, and Redbridge University Hospital Trust. This is a new post and has arisen due to an increase in demand for radiology services and as a part of transformation and expansion. This is a locum post for 1 year to begin with a view to be made substantive after a year. The advertised post is to support general radiology with contribution to musculoskeletal imaging. The successful applicants should have completed training in diagnostic radiology and must have experience in musculoskeletal imaging and or a relevant training fellowship. We pride ourselves in the delivery of a State-of-the-Art service, where our patients are at the core of a strategy of delivering high quality individualised treatments in a culturally sensitive, dignified, and compassionate environment. Workload is varied, but general radiology largely consists of supporting inpatient /AE service, and outpatient cross-sectional imaging and ultrasound/ FNAs. Contribution to musculoskeletal imaging services include supporting Ultrasound and reporting relevant cross-sectional imaging and participating in relevant MDTs. The candidate will be expected to support general diagnostic radiology on-call service as well. Please find the attached job description and person specification for further information.
