Barking, Havering and Redbridge University Hospitals NHS Trust (BHRUT) Endoscopy Units are expanding our service and are looking for enthusiastic, motivated, innovative individuals with a keen interest in developing their career in Endoscopy. Due to an increase in demand for Endoscopy services, we are investing to grow our team to increase our ability to meet demands. This is an exciting time to be part of an innovative and forward-thinking service.
You will join a highly specialised team of professionals who deliver a high standard of patient centred care.

To ensure endoscopy regulations and policies are adhered to
To ensure HTM 01-06 regulations are complied with
To maintain an efficient and effective service at all times
We’re an organisation that is getting better and better. We were the most improved Trust in England for A&E performance in 2023/24; we’re no longer in special measures; and Matthew Trainer, our Chief Executive, has been named the top CEO by the Health Service Journal. Our improvements are driven by a determination to deliver care we’re proud of and that our patients are happy with.
Many of our 8,000 staff – who come from 146 different countries - live in the three diverse London boroughs we serve and the majority are from black, Asian and minority ethnic groups. More than 400 of them are on apprenticeship programmes and we’re proud to be a London Living Wage employer.
We operate from two main sites - King George Hospital (KGH) in Goodmayes and Queen’s Hospital in Romford. We have two of the busiest emergency departments in London – more than 300,000 people visited our A&Es in 2023.
Patients across north east London are benefitting from two new state of the art theatres at KGH and our Community Diagnostic Centres at Barking Community Hospital and St George’s Health and Wellbeing Hub will significantly increase the number of scans that can be carried out.
We’re looking forward to introducing an electronic patient record next year. This will mean the records of any patient visiting one of the seven hospitals run by BHRUT and Barts Health will be accessible to the clinical teams. It’ll make things easier for staff and will be better for patients.
