Applications are invited for 2 x Locum Consultant Radiologists to join the team based at Raigmore Hospital in Inverness on a 10 PA basis per week; however we would support applications for those wishing to work part time. Some home working will also be available. Out of hours CT is entirely provided by teleradiology and there is currently no on-call commitment.

Interests in MSK, Breast, cardiothoracic and paediatric imaging would be especially welcome, however any other existing specialist interests will be considered. The interested applicant is encouraged to get in touch with the department to discuss further.

You will be working alongside dynamic and supportive clinical colleagues in radiology, nursing and a range of medical & surgical specialties. The hospitals in the Highlands are pleasant and friendly places to work.

With mountains, glens, lochs and moors in abundance, the Scottish Highlands offer the perfect environment for all manner of outdoor pursuits. Inverness is the Highland capital, and is steadily growing to provide a wide range of cultural and recreational attractions. Urban, coastal or countryside living are all possible within easy distance of the hospital. Local schooling is of a high quality, and Gaelic Medium education available throughout.

Applicants must be on the General Medical Council Specialist Register with a Licence to Practise, working towards CESR.

We understand the constraints you can face when moving jobs, which is why we offer a substantial Relocation Package for new permanent members of the team.

NHS Scotland is reducing their full-time working week from 37.5 to 37 hours per week from 1 April 2024 but with no change in pay. This reduction will also be applied pro rata for part-time staff. This advert and any subsequent offer/contract of employment therefore reflects the new working hours. However, as not all service areas will be able to adopt the 37-hour working week immediately from 1 April 2024, you may be required to work up to an additional 30 minutes per week for a temporary period for which you would be paid until the service you are working in changes rosters or working patterns to accommodate the new reduced working week. If you have any questions or concerns please contact the Recruiting Board.
