Consultant Radiologist (With Sub-Specialism in Head & Neck)

North Cumbria Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust invites applications for the role of Consultant Radiologist (With Sub-Specialism in Head & Neck). We are looking for a dynamic and forward-thinking Consultant Radiologist to work within the Directorate of Radiology covering North Cumbria, based at either the Cumberland Infirmary in Carlisle or West Cumberland Hospital in Whitehaven. Applications who do not have CCT, but are working towards CESR, are welcome to apply and will be offered a Locum Consultant Radiologist post if successful. This post has arisen due to investment in the Radiology department to meet growing demand. Successful applicants will join a team of existing interventional and diagnostic Consultant Radiologists. This role involves working across sites on a rotational basis at West Cumberland Hospital in Whitehaven (currently 1:7 weekdays). On-Call workload is managed at Cumberland Infirmary site, reporting for both Cumberland Infirmary and West Cumberland Hospital sites. There is provision for remote access to Trust IT systems and working from home may be possible with agreement from the Clinical Director. It is expected that the appointee will contribute equally to the out-of-hours work and on-call rota (currently 1:13, with potential reduction). The appointee, together with existing consultant colleagues, will be responsible for the provision of a comprehensive, efficient, and cost-effective clinical radiology service to the Trust and other users of the service.
