Are you a qualified Radiographer looking to specialise in veterinary imaging?
Are you a Veterinary Radiographer looking for an exciting change?
Are you a Veterinary Nurse looking for a new challenge?
If you have answered yes to any of the above we want to hear from you!

We have an exciting opportunity for a Radiographer to join a team of friendly radiographers, on a part time basis, in this busy Veterinary Teaching Hospital. This post is fixed-term for 12 months or the return of the post holder, whichever is the earlier.

Applicants should be a Registered Veterinary Nurse, or a qualified Diagnostic Radiographer holding either a BSc (Hons) Diagnostic Radiography, or other relevant degree/qualification.

The role holder will be responsible for producing high quality clinical diagnostic images of small and large animals. This is an excellent opportunity to learn new skills to complement your existing knowledge and experience.

Experience of working in the veterinary profession would be advantageous but not essential as full training will be given.

Candidates with existing experience in veterinary radiography will be expected to take part in the out-of-hours rota as part of their role, for which additional remuneration will be made in line with the current University Policy. Candidates without prior veterinary radiography experience will not be required to participate in the rota initially; however, participation may be expected once appropriate training has been completed and competency has been achieved.

In return, we can offer a supportive and engaging environment and generous paid annual leave, plus public holidays. We encourage CPD and provide an allowance to support this, along with competitive staff benefits and services.

Further particulars for the role and information about the Department are available in the Further Particulars document. If you are viewing this advert on an external site, please visit the University's job pages for access.
