Main duties of the job
The current job description allows for 7.5PA at KH FT and 2.5PA at SGH and though this multi-site role has been advertised as full time, applications are welcoming from those wishing to work part-time/ those interested in a job-sharing opportunity.

It is anticipated that remote access to allow home working will be available for all consultants as the regional RIS/PACS system come online (provisionally late 2024).
About us
