Full job description

University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust is delighted to offer a fantastic opportunity to work with us.

Please see below for detailed job description of the role.
Job Title: Principal Physicist in Radiation Protection
Contract Type: Permanent

This is an exciting opportunity to join our team as Principal Clinical Scientist in Radiation Protection. We are looking for a enthusiastic diagnostic radiology Medical Physics Expert (MPE), or someone who will be able to submit a portfolio soon (appointment initially at a lower banding with progression on certification will be considered). The role is focussed on the MPE role but minor engagement in other work of the group, including ionising and non-ionising radiation protection and radioactive materials management can be expected.

The role will be instrumental in optimisation of new X-ray equipment recently installed under the Trust's managed equipment service. This is an opportunity to make an lasting impact on patient radiation doses and set standards for image quality.

The post sits within a team of 13 scientists, technologists, support staff and trainees. It reports to Head of Radiation Protection and will include limited line management responsibility. We work closely as a team so excellent interpersonal skills are a must. The post is based primarily at Southampton General Hospital with travel to other centres. Flexible working will be considered where this aligns with the needs of the group.

As one of the largest acute teaching Trusts in England, we offer learning and development opportunities to help you achieve the career you aspire to. UHS is rated ‘Good’ by the CQC and in the latest national NHS Staff Survey, we were in the top 10 acute trusts for staff engagement and for staff recommending the hospital as a place to work or receive care.

We support flexible working and will consider requests taking into account the needs of the service. UHS employees are able to access a range of NHS discounts, are entitled to a minimum of 35 days paid holiday (pro rata), and we offer a generous pension scheme.

Southampton is an attractive place to live and work situated on the south coast, with an international airport and direct trains to London. The New Forest National Park and beaches of the Jurassic coast are also right on our doorstep. The city offers living costs 30% lower than London and 17 schools rated outstanding by Ofsted.

We believe that using technology wisely shows strong time management and commitment to innovation. However, personalising your recruitment application to highlight your unique skills and experiences is crucial. Relying too heavily on generic, AI-generated content instead of drawing from your own strengths and accomplishments may lead to your application being rejected if multiple candidates present identical or similar information.

The successful candidate will be appointed as a Medical Physics Expert (MPE) to UHS and to other organisations, including NHS Trusts and independent healthcare providers in the Hampshire area and Channel Islands.

In this role, your key responsibilities will include:
Organise and carry out audits of medical radiation use and performance testing of X-ray equipment with the Trust and for client organisations to an annual schedule or as required by the service.

Carry out quality control testing of all types of medical radiological and ultrasound imaging equipment. This post does not support MRI or radionuclide imaging.

Work with clinical colleagues to optimise complex radiographic imaging processes using knowledge of equipment performance and clinical imaging requirements

Support other work of the Radiation Protection team as required by the demands of the organisation.

We are looking for a candidate who has

HCPC registration.

An MSc in a relevant subject, and a PhD is desirable.

Experience of working with a range of diagnostic X-ray equipment

Ability to work well with a team to solve problems

Ability to present complex data to varied audiences
