Job Summary

An opportunity has opened for radiographers with an interest in breast imaging to come & join our friendly multi-disciplinary breast team based at the Nottingham Breast Institute.

Ideally, you will hold a UK-recognised mammography qualification, but training can be provided for the right person. After successful completion, you will undertake mammography practice within the NHS Breast Screening Programme & the Symptomatic Breast Service, meeting the needs of our patients by delivering high-quality care.

Both full-time and part-time hours are available. This post may involve some weekend and evening work.

You will hold a BSc. in Radiography or equivalent, have current radiographic experience, and be registered with the Health Care Professions Council.

A full UK driving license and use of a vehicle for work purposes are essential for this role.

Mammography posts have a gendered protected character, due to the nature of the work. This is an occupational requirement; as a result, the post is exempt under section 9, part 1 of the Equality Act 2010, and therefore only female applicants should apply.

As a Training Centre, we train mammographers as part of the Post Graduate Award in Breast Imaging Practice and provide a variety of study days, which our staff have the opportunity to attend. We actively encourage and support CPD activities and have won “Best Poster” at the Symposium Mammographicum on multiple occasions.
