For more information on the Job Description and Responsibilities please click the link below. More detail about the role: We're pleased to announce this rare and exciting opportunity to join our friendly, dedicated Radiotherapy Physics team as an apprentice Mechanical Engineer/Clinical Technologist. This is an exciting time to join the team due to a recent restructure and the development of collaborative working across the South, East and North Devon Medical Physics network (SEND Medical Physics), which includes the Torbay and South Devon NHS Foundation Trust. The position will involve work across both Trusts, and the post holder may be rotated through any of the two main locations. The base will be Royal Devon University Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, Wonford in Exeter. Radiotherapy Physics provides scientific support services to the treatment of cancer using ionising radiation produced by linear accelerators (linacs) and brachytherapy sources, for example. Alongside your studies you could be working on a full range of tasks supporting radiotherapy (and other clinical services) specialising in the production of bespoke test and patient specific devices, manufactured within our dedicated mechanical workshop facility. Applicants should be numerate, computer literate and practically minded. Applicants must meet the entry requirements for the degree course at the University of West of England in Bristol. This currently requires 128 UCAS points from A level (ABB, including at least one relevant science from Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Maths or Physiology), + Maths and English GCSE Grade C (4) or equivalent. Alternative qualifications may be accepted, subject to the UWE admissions process. Applications may be considered from candidates with a lower UCAS points score who can demonstrate a particular aptitude for the role. You will undertake a fully funded, professionally accredited BSc (Hons) Degree qualification in Healthcare Science (Medical Physics Technology) specialising in Radiotherapy Physics (Radiation Engineering). Upon successful completion of the apprenticeship you will be eligible for entry on the professional register for clinical technologists (RCT). There may be an opportunity to join the department permanently at the end of your training but in any case, your new-found skills as a clinical technologist will be in high demand as there is a national shortage of trained staff. This post will be commencing in September 2024. Salary will be paid at agenda for change band 5 Annexe 21 and the starting salary will be £22,478 per annum pro rata, based on 37.5 hours per week. The salary rises to £24,207 per annum pro rata in year 2 then £25,936 per annum pro rata in year 3, based on 2023/24 salary scales (uplift pending). When you successfully complete the apprenticeship, the salary for a qualified band 5 post currently ranges from £28,407 per annum pro rata to £34,581 per annum pro rata (uplift pending). https://www.nhsemployers.org/sites/default/files/pdf/21/406.pdf Candidates shortlisted must be available all day for interview on Monday 22nd July 2024. These will take place in person at the Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital, Wonford, Exeter in the Medical Physics department, Exeter Oncology Centre. The successful candidate offered an apprenticeship must be able to accept, with proof of the required A level outcomes (where appropriate), by 5pm on 25th July. The deadline for final applications to UWE is 5pm on Wednesday 31st July.
