Consultant Interventional Radiologist

We're looking for a Consultant Interventional Radiologist to join our highly regarded team at the Royal Devon University Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust. Working alongside experienced Interventional Radiology and Diagnostic Radiology colleagues, you'll play a key role in a growing IR service.

Alongside a varied clinical practice there are opportunities to develop subspecialist interests, contribute to teaching and training and support service development. Dedicated hybrid theatre sessions and one day per week remote working form part of the role.

Whether you're applying for your first consultant post or seeking your next professional challenge, you'll find a welcoming team committed to helping you thrive professionally while enjoying an exceptional quality of life in Devon.

The post is based at the Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital (Wonford), the vascular centre for both Royal Devon University Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust and Torbay and South Devon NHS Foundation Trust.

You'll be part of an established team of consultant radiologists including four Interventional Radiologists, responsible for delivering a broad range of vascular and non-vascular procedures. The successful candidate will have opportunities to further develop existing services and pursue areas of specialist interest alongside general or subspecialist radiology reporting, according to their skills and experience.

The current IR consultants are job‑planned for sessions at the Hybrid endovascular theatre in Torbay, and this opportunity will also be extended to any successful candidate.

We actively support service development, innovation, teaching, training and research, offering opportunities to contribute according to your interests and career aspirations.
