NHS Scotland is committed to encouraging equality and diversity among our workforce and eliminating unlawful discrimination. The aim is for our workforce to be truly representative and for each employee to feel respected and able to give their best. NHS Scotland welcomes applications from all sections of society.
This role offers you the chance to live in an area of outstanding natural beauty with excellent local schools and further education facilities, only 2 hours from Glasgow. It enables you to escape the rat race and facilitate patient‑centred care with a new and innovative on‑call system that supports a good work‑life balance.
We are looking for an enthusiastic, experienced radiographer/sonographer to join our small friendly team. There is flexibility in this post, and ideally we want an experienced sonographer who would like to regain or maintain general radiography skills, scanning 3‑4 days a week and maintaining plain film and basic CT skills 1‑2 days a week.
You will be supported clinically by another sonographer/radiographer colleague and by an onsite radiologist.
The team includes another five specialist radiographers.
The Lorn and Islands Hospital, our Rural General Hospital for Argyll and Bute, is located in Oban, but you will also work independently at various sites within Argyll and Bute CHP.
The radiology department provides a 24/7 service, undertakes CT, interventional fluoroscopy and ultrasound examinations, together with general radiography work including A+E. The department operates 9‑5 Monday‑Friday, with evenings and weekends covered by on‑call duty.
We support and encourage CPD and role development. An ideal candidate will be forward‑thinking, committed to service improvement and welcome the opportunity to work independently while being part of a small dynamic team.
If you are interested in living and working in this beautiful rural area and pursuing a more stress‑free existence away from urban life, then this is your opportunity.
