Step into a role that offers the opportunity to work in an expanding, modern service with state-of-the-art technology as well as the flexibility you value. We're looking for an Interventional Radiologist who's excited for professional development, thrives in a collaborative environment and is ready to help shape an extraordinary service.
As a Trust we have worked hard to expand and modernise the service. We've got a newly refurbished 45m suite with Siemens Artis-Q, Dyna CT, Cydar AI, IVUS, lithotripsy as well as a 5-bed radiology day unit of which over 70% of vascular interventions are now done as day cases with the team regularly hitting their 5-day C-quin targets. We also have exciting plans looking ahead! In 2026 we are opening our brand new 79m hybrid IR theatre as part of our new surgical and critical care wing.
The Radiology Department delivers a comprehensive imaging and interventional service, supporting the needs of a busy District General Hospital. We understand that maintaining wellbeing and a healthy work-life balance is essential in a busy clinical environment, which is why we offer flexibility within job plans and working arrangements - including the option of a hybrid role. Home PACS access is available for colleagues who wish to work remotely for part of the week, providing the comfort and convenience of reporting from home.

Somerset's demographic profile is notably older than the national average, with 24% of residents aged over 65, compared to the England and Wales average of 19%.This aging population influences the trust's healthcare services, necessitating a focus on age-related health issues. The trust provides services across a very large, predominantly rural area.
GIRFT review 2025 Notable good practice:
Taunton is a busy, high volume IR centre, particularly for vascular IR. This is impressive given the size of the department. Vascular IR service includes infra-renal EVAR and its complications, with good data from the site on the National Vascular Registry (NVR)".
Team ethos and dynamics at both sites: evidence of great team working within and between the consultant, nursing, sonography and radiography teams. Radiology trainees consistently rate the trust highly and gave positive feedback at the visit''
