A Vacancy at Barking Havering and Redbridge University Hospitals NHS Trust.
We are looking for someone to join our Radiotherapy Physics team as 8a Principal Dosimetrist. This is a brand new post created as a result of a successful bid to NHSE to provide stereotactic radiosurgery treatments (in partnership with Barts Health).
The Oncology department is a well-equipped centre treating patients from across East London and Essex, committed to introducing the latest treatment techniques and equipment. External beam radiotherapy is delivered on Varian Halcyon, Edge, and Ethos Therapy linacs. The department was the first in the country to treat patients on Halcyon, and to treat patients with on-line adaptive radiotherapy on Ethos. The Edge is our stereotactic machine, with HDMLC, 4D-CBCT, 6 DoF couch, and HyperArc-enabled. Aria is cloud-based, hosted by Varian. Treatment planning is done on Eclipse 17 (with RapidPlan and MCO licences) and in Ethos, with auto-contouring on Limbus. The department fully supports a wide range of clinical trials, and has an excellent selection of QA devices and software. We have a new Siemens go.Sim CT scanner which went clinical recently; within the last two years we have introduced HyperSight on Ethos and Identify SGRT on all linacs. Our current commissioned SABR treatments are lung, bone (non-spine), nodes, adrenal nodes, and spine, and we are about to start intra-cranial SRS. A full linac refresh is due in 2027.
Interested candidates are strongly encouraged to get in touch: please contact Dom Withers (dom.withers@nhs.net)
This post is based in treatment planning and holds responsibility for the day-to-day management of the treatment planning section. The post holder will deputise for the Head of Treatment Planning when required and will also fulfil the statutory roles of Operator and Practitioner as defined under the Ionising Radiation (Medical Exposure) Regulations (IR(ME)R).
We’re an organisation that is getting better and better and our improvements are driven by a determinationto deliver care we’re proud of and our patients are happy with. We’re no longer inspecial measures; we’ve openedtwo new theatres at our Elective Surgical Hub in King George Hospital (KGH);and, in recognition of our progress, we’ve beenshortlisted for Trust of the Year at the Health Service Journal Awards.
We operate from two main sites – KGH in Goodmayes and Queen’s Hospital in Romford. We have two busy emergency departments with more than 330,000 people visiting them last year. We’re campaigning to secure the £35m we need to transform the A&E at Queen’s and get rid of corridor care.
Our patients are benefitting from our Women’s Health Hub in Ilford; anAgeing Well Centre in Hornchurch; and Community Diagnostic Centres (CDC) atBarking Community Hospital and atSt George’s Health and Wellbeing Hub.
These CDCs are open 12 hours a day, 7 days a week and are providing an extra 94,000 scans a year.
The majority of our 8,000 staff – who come from 146 different countries - live in the three diverse London boroughs we serve and are from black, Asian and minority ethnic groups. Many canwork flexibly andmore than 400 of them are on our Ofsted accreditedapprenticeship programmes. We’re proud to be aLondon Living Wage employer.
We’re looking forward to introducing an electronic patient record that will be transformative for our staff and beneficial for our patients.
