We are looking for experienced and dedicated MRI radiographers to join our MRI team at Sherwood Forest Hospital NHS Trust (SFH).

This is an exciting opportunity offering rotation across all SFH sites, including the new CDC and MRI build. The MRI department will benefit from the introduction of new state-of-the-art Philips Ingenia Ambition X 1.5T systems opening in the next 3 months, within an environment designed to offer the best service to optimize both staff and patients' experiences. SFH MRI service has recently expanded to open a new facility at the Community Diagnostic Centre (CDC) MRI at Mansfield Community Hospital.

The post-holders will work as part of a team consisting of radiographers, an assistant practitioner, and imaging assistants to provide a 11.5-hour, 7-day service in the MRI Department. The successful candidates will develop specialized knowledge and expertise to produce high-quality images for diagnosis and treatment, while maintaining high standards of care.

We are an award-winning NHS Foundation Trust working alongside health and social care colleagues across the county to provide acute and community healthcare services to more than 420,000 people across Mansfield, Ashfield, Newark and Sherwood, and parts of Derbyshire and Lincolnshire. We put the patient at the heart of everything that we do and it is our aim to make sure that every patient is treated as we would want a member of our own family to be treated.

At the same time, we expect our staff to be caring, kind and courteous to each other and to look out for each other. We believe that we are truly a clinically-led organisation. We are proud that our Trust colleagues have voted us the best acute Trust to work for in the East Midlands for seven years running in the National NHS Staff Survey, while the Care Quality Commission has rated our Trust as 'outstanding' for care and our King's Mill Hospital as the only 'outstanding' NHS-run hospital in the East Midlands.
