Working within our BSE Accredited Cardio-Respiratory Department, you will be a valued member of our team providing high quality diagnostic tests across the cardiac pathways.

Main duties of the job
The post will involve working in an established team of Cardiac Physiologists providing high quality diagnostics across the cardiac pathways.

Our department is an approved training centre for the National School of Healthcare Science and supports the training of a wide range of programmes including PTP, ETP, STP and apprentices. Continued professional and personal development is actively encouraged and the postholder will be given opportunities and supported to develop their own postgraduate skills alongside contributing to the delivery of training within the service.
Applicants should have a good level of experience in adult echocardiography/reporting, and be actively working towards BSE Level 2 accreditation.
