• Identify, assess, and manage treatment-related side effects, referring to other professionals where appropriate.
• Support seamless communication and smooth patient pathways between different teams and care settings.
• Participate in on-treatment reviews, patient education, and assessment clinics.
• Use radiotherapy software systems effectively to document care and support safe treatment delivery.
• Contribute to patient-focused service improvements and maintain high standards through audit and evidence-based practice.
• Assist in the training, supervision, and support of students and assistant practitioners

This is an excellent opportunity to build your radiotherapy career in a supportive department committed to high-quality, patient-centred care and continuous innovation. You’ll work with advanced technology, gain exposure to a wide range of clinical techniques, and contribute to a service that is actively engaged in research, audit, quality improvement, and ongoing professional development.
