RADIOTHERAPY PHYSICS GROUP
Senior Radiotherapy Physicist (Band 7)
We are seeking a permanent Band 7 scientist to join our modern, well-equipped department. Applicants should ideally be HCPC registered as a clinical scientist; however, applications from trainees nearing qualification are welcome. If not yet registered, consideration for a lower band may be made until registration is achieved.
Your responsibilities will include the full range of radiotherapy physicist duties such as treatment planning, equipment checking, brachytherapy, commissioning, QA, staff training, and clinical advising. You will also have opportunities to develop new techniques and engage in collaborative research with the University.
Our OUH Radiotherapy Centre at Churchill Hospital features five Varian linacs (including Halcyon and TrueBeam), CT-sim, ARIA, Eclipse, HDR brachytherapy, and a prostate seed brachytherapy service. Our satellite centres in Swindon and Milton Keynes expand our capacity, equipped with additional linacs and CT-sim. Supporting systems include AI auto-contouring and RadCalc, with advanced treatment planning tools such as RapidPlan, MCO, HyperArc, and Velocity. We treat a variety of techniques including SRS/SRT and SABR. Ongoing development projects and a dedicated computing team focus on software and automation.

The main role involves participating in all aspects of the Radiotherapy Physics Group, including complex procedures, new technique implementation, research, and providing expert advice to clinicians and healthcare professionals. The work directly impacts patient treatments and may involve direct contact with patients during treatment and planning.
You will liaise with staff across Radiotherapy, Medical Physics, and external partners, including equipment manufacturers and engineers.
