Rapid access and the safe and efficient reporting of inpatient and emergency workload are key priorities, and the post holder will be expected to contribute to the general work of the department, including plain film and CT reporting, which is delivered by a large consultant team across 7 days, and includes a daytime duty rota, scheduled but infrequent and flexible sessions at weekends and also extended weekdays.
