We have a great opportunity for a candidate looking for their first senior leadership post within Imaging. This is a fixed term/secondment position to cover for a period of maternity leave within the team and training and support will be provided to the candidate.
This is an exciting time to be joining our team at Bolton as we embark on a number of developments and improvements to expand our team and our services to our community.

Experience of managing a team of staff, co-ordinating rotas, conducting appraisals, return to work interviews, attendance management etc. will be essential for this role and the ability to positively engage both clinical and non-clinical teams is essential.
You will be expected to deliver high performing services within budget, with a focus on quality and continuous improvement.
We are fortunate to have a managed equipment service contract which ensures that our patients have access to the latest technology via a planned equipment replacement programme. As the lead radiographer, you will oversee the equipment replacement for your area including formulation of outline business cases and project management of the installations in conjunction with the estates and facilities team and the equipment suppliers.
This is a great opportunity for a radiographer to develop leadership skills and expertise and to move your career to the next level.
