We are looking to recruit an enthusiastic, experienced sonographer to join our small, dynamic and friendly team of professionals who deliver the highest standards of diagnostic Ultrasound investigations.

The centre is open 7 days a week between 8am and 7pm, which allows us to offer extremely flexible working hours that could include weekends and evenings if it suits you, or just standard weekdays. There are also no on-call responsibilities, improving your work-life balance!
We have 5 ultrasound rooms running clinics each day, so there is always support from other sonographers when you need it. We have state-of-the-art Canon ultrasound systems, which are updated regularly.
This year marks the start of our self-referral private pay service in MRI, Ultrasound, and USGIs, which we would love you to be part of.
