The Role

Responsibilities are expected to include:

  • Leading the operational delivery of diagnostic imaging services

  • Managing performance, productivity, capacity and service delivery
  • Maintaining high standards of clinical governance, quality and regulatory compliance
  • Workforce planning, recruitment, development and performance management
  • Identifying and delivering service improvements
  • Supporting the development of new pathways, services and technologies
  • Managing budgets, resources and departmental performance
  • Building strong relationships with consultants, clinicians and senior stakeholders
  • Contributing to wider organisational strategy and growth

About You

We are interested in speaking with candidates who can demonstrate:

  • Significant experience within diagnostic imaging or radiology services
  • Senior management or departmental leadership experience
  • Strong operational and people-management capability
  • A good understanding of clinical governance, quality and regulatory requirements
  • Experience of service improvement and change
  • Commercial and financial awareness
  • The ability to build effective relationships with consultants, clinicians and senior stakeholders


Experience across modalities such as MRI, CT, X-ray, Ultrasound and/or Mammography would be beneficial.

A relevant clinical qualification and/or HCPC registration would be advantageous, although we are also interested in experienced operational imaging leaders with a strong understanding of the sector.

Candidates may currently be working as a Head of Imaging, Diagnostic Imaging Manager, Radiology Manager, Imaging Services Manager, Clinical Imaging Manager or in a comparable senior position.
