Job Description

We are seeking an experienced, methodical Healthcare Science Practitioner with problem solving skills to join our x-ray equipment evaluation team. The successful applicant will join a growing team of 25 - scientists, technologists and administrators - providing equipment quality assurance and scientific support to NHS and independent sector radiology departments in the North West of England (a few customers are further afield). Applicants should be patient focused and flexible to change where quality can be improved.
Candidates should have scientific and interpersonal skills. Proactive team working is essential as well as the ability to work independently.
A radiographer or engineer with relevant experience in the field of Diagnostic Radiology / Radiation Protection may be suitable for this post.
We welcome external applicants and would encourage you to get in touch if you would like to informally discuss your suitability for the post.
See the essential and desirable criteria for more. Additional information about the group can be found via The Christie website at http://www.christie.nhs.uk/cmpe

Duties will involve performance testing on a wide variety of diagnostic X-ray equipment, e.g. mammography, dental, angiography and CT, and radiation protection surveys of diagnostic radiology installations. At this level, independent commissioning of equipment is expected as well as routine level B (physics) QA testing. A working understanding of x-ray equipment, radiation instrumentation (such as dosemeters) and the relevant UK ionising radiation regulations and guidance/standards will be expected.

Teaching and supervision of less experienced staff is a continuous activity at this level and participation in driving your profession forward will be expected.

Communication skills are essential to work with healthcare providers in clinical settings (such as radiographers) and within CMPE to support other technologists and scientists.

Applicants should be registered with the RCT as a Clinical Technologist, the HCPC as a Healthcare Science Practitioner (or eligible for these registrations), or with HCPC as a Radiographer and have experience in the use of a wide range of X-ray imaging equipment. Candidates without registration or sufficient training may be appointed at Band 5 until competent however they must have relevant experience already.

A current UK driving license is essential as frequent travel (approx. 3 days a week) is necessary in this role.

1. Equipment performance testing and radiation protection surveys

o Critical examination and commissioning of new equipment
o Routine quality control on existing installations

o updating central records of measurements, e.g. typical patient doses, equipment calibration factors
o calibrating radiation protection meters as required and/or organising dispatch of equipment for external calibration.
