A Vacancy at University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
We are looking for an enthusiastic experienced Planning Radiographer/dosimetrist to join the UCLH dosimetry team as part of the radiotherapy and proton therapy physics team.
Applicants should be State Registered or equivalent. Experience of treatment planning using Varian Eclipse planning system is desirable. The successful applicant will join a growing team of dosimetrists liaising closely with physics, clinical and radiographic staff in the provision of radiotherapy and proton therapy physics services. The ability to work and communicate effectively with the minimum of supervision is essential.
Candidates must have a clinical background with good knowledge of relevant anatomy, physiology and pathology. As the dosimetry team is hybrid working, a good understanding of using Microsoft teams is also an essential requirement for this position.
The dosimetry team will be expected to produce photon and proton treatment plans for the diverse UCLH case mix, including treatment complex sarcoma, head and neck, neurological and paediatric cancers.
The successful candidate will be expected to participate in multidisciplinary discussions to produce the best treatment options for each patient. They will participate in the training of students and other staff members on treatment planning.
The postholder will support the Senior dosimetrists in ensuring treatment planning pathways are delivered in a timely fashion across the radiotherapy and proton therapy services. They will support the development of new and existing techniques including production of the standard operating procedures and training competencies for staff.

The department equipment also includes one orthovoltage unit and an Elekta High Dose Rate Brachytherapy unit. Planning equipment includes a CT simulator with full 4D imaging capabilities for Respiratory Gated studies. The Department offers a variety of specialised treatment services and is continually developing advanced treatment techniques. Treatments offered include: IMRT; Volumetric Arc Therapy; IGRT; CT-based TBI; Ultrasound–guided and CT-planned HDR prostate brachytherapy.
UCLH is one of two national Proton Beam Therapy (PBT) centres delivering PBT across the NHS. The proton department is equipped with four Varian ProBEAM gantries with dedicated CT and MR planning. ARIA/ Eclipse is in use across both radiotherapy and proton therapy. The proton service is sited within the Trust’s campus in the heart of the capital where it enjoys a close collaboration with UCL on ground breaking research projects.
