Interview Date: TBC
Main duties of the job
The successful candidate must be well-organised, self-motivated, and enthusiastic to learn the unique complexities of IT in a modern radiology department. It is essential that the candidate has both knowledge and experience of working with IT systems. This will be the foundation for their extensive in-house training which will ultimately equip them to undertake the following duties:
1. To be a point of contact for a variety of pre-defined problematic situations, and to exercise the necessary skills to resolve those situations autonomously.
2. To ensure escalation procedures are adhered to whenever problems remain unresolved.
3. To control the electronic transfer of radiology examinations in and out of the Trust.
4. To create and control the user accounts for various IT systems.
This 37.5 hours per week role is spread across Monday to Friday, with a starting time of 8:30 AM. However, flexibility on starting times is negotiable. There is no requirement for weekend or night-time work, and remote working is not an option.
