Join to apply for the Band 8a Principal Clinical Scientist - Nuclear Medicine role at Barking, Havering and Redbridge University Hospitals NHS Trust
The Nuclear Medicine service at Barking, Havering & Redbridge University Hospitals NHS Trust operates across two sites: Queen’s Hospital and King George Hospital. The service currently maintains 3 gamma cameras (2 x SPECT and a new 32-slice SPECT CT).
We run a dedicated manufacturing radiopharmacy equipped with two new isolators, supplying 99mTc radiopharmaceuticals to both BHRUT and external partners. The team also manages a therapy service offering I-131 and Ra-223 treatments for a population of approximately 750,000 people. In addition, the department actively supports a variety of clinical trials.
We are seeking an enthusiastic Clinical Scientist (Band 8a) to join our supportive and collaborative team. The successful candidate will contribute to all areas of the Nuclear Medicine service, including quality assurance, radiopharmacy (with training provided), research and development, and external contract work.
Applicants should hold an MSc from an accredited programme and be registered with the HCPC as a Clinical Scientist. Relevant experience in Nuclear Medicine Physics is required for this role, and candidates should be working towards Medical Physics Expert (MPE) status.
We welcome applications from individuals who do not yet meet the full criteria, as appointment at Band 7 may be considered based on experience and development potential.
At BHRUT, we are committed to building an inclusive workforce and offer flexible working arrangements to support work-life balance.
* To plan, organise and implement a quality assurance programme for all equipment in Nuclear Medicine.
* To play a lead role in ensuring the department maintains legislative compliance.
* To play a lead role in the administration of radionuclide therapies.
* To supervise and assist with the training of trainee clinical scientists, nurses, radiographers and technicians.
* To assist in the upload and maintenance of documents within the department’s quality management software.
We provide care for the residents of three diverse London boroughs. Most of our 7,800 permanent staff live in Barking and Dagenham, Havering and Redbridge and the majority are from black, Asian and minority ethnic groups. We also provide healthcare services to people in south west Essex, and specialist neurosciences services to the whole of the county.
Our services include all the major specialties of large acute hospitals and we operate from two main sites - King George Hospital in Goodmayes and Queen’s Hospital in Romford. We have two of the busiest emergency departments in London – more than 300,000 people visited our A&Es in 2023. We also provide outpatient services at Brentwood Community Hospital, Barking Community Hospital, Loxford Polyclinic, and Harold Wood Polyclinic.
We’re pleased to be leading the way in reducing the time our patients wait to get the treatment they need. The Elective Surgical Hub at King George Hospital is one of eight to be accredited as part of a national scheme; the Care Quality Commission has raised the ratings for urgent and emergency care at Queen’s and King George hospitals; and data released by NHS England showed that the Trust was the most improved in 2023 for reducing waits for emergency care.
We are particularly proud of our regional Neurosciences Centre; Radiotherapy Centre; Hyper Acute Stroke Unit; and dedicated breast care service at King George Hospital. We’re also part of the North East London Cancer Alliance.
