Summary
A Vacancy at University Hospitals of Derby and Burton NHS Foundation Trust.
An opportunity has arisen for an individual to join our team as an Associate Clinical Technologist in the Nuclear Medicine Service of the University Hospitals of Derby and Burton, based at the Royal Derby Hospital.
The Nuclear Medicine Service provides specialist diagnostic imaging and non-imaging patient services.

The ability to work and communicate well with people is essential. You must also have 5 GCSE (grade C or above), or equivalent, to include English, Maths and a physical science. Previous experience of working within an aseptic environment or diagnostic imaging service would be an advantage, but specific training will be provided where necessary.
