The University of Glasgow has been changing the world for more than 570 years, and today we are one of the world's top 100 universities. We are delighted to have recently been awarded Scottish University of the Year by the Times & Sunday Times Good University Guide 2024.

Our people have always been at the forefront of innovation, and our past achievements inspire our current world changers.

We have an exciting opportunity for a Lead Research Radiographer to join the School of Psychology & Neuroscience on a permanent basis. The post holder will provide advanced technological and specialist services and expertise in MR imaging, playing a central role in the delivery and development of leading-edge imaging services.

The post holder will collaborate with university researchers and NHS staff to ensure the safe, effective and high-quality operation of multiple MR-scanners. You will provide specialist support and technical guidance to research staff (e.g., tailored sequencing, project planning and delivery, etc) and you will promote cutting-edge research, across a breadth of research activities, including both healthy volunteer and patient work.

As senior independent specialist, you will provide strategic and functional technical leadership to PIs and research staff, including coordinating research protocols, facilitating practical implementation of all new studies and detecting and investigating contraindications or incidental findings. You will manage and lead all practical aspects of the service delivery, ensuring patient contact, consent and welfare requirements are adhered to. Candidates are expected to be HCPC-registered and will typically have developed the required expertise through substantial experience in senior technical roles and/or significant research experience using MR imaging.
