These are replacement posts, intended to maintain and develop the existing radiology service.  The successful candidates will be general radiologists with Fellowship of the Royal College of Radiologists (or equivalent) and be on the Specialist Register or be within 6 months of their CCT at the time of interview.  Wide training and experience in general radiology as well as experience in cross-sectional imaging is required.  Experience in the required subspecialties is desirable to complement the skills of consultant group, however other subspecialties would be considered. The successful candidate will be expected to take part in training and supervision of junior radiologists allocated to the Department

The posts will include sessions at both Sandwell Hospital and City Hospital. The Trust will be reconfiguring its services in advance of the move to the Midland Metropolitan Hospital and the post-holder will be required to work at any of the Trust’s sites, but with minimal cross site travel.

There will be opportunity to further develop specialist skills through the Black Country Alliance, an alliance between ourselves and two neighbouring Trusts, Dudley and Walsall to maximise the specialist skills with greater clinical scope.

The department has established a DUTY radiologist in the working week, who is the main point of contact, with calls screened by a secretary, minimising interruptions in remaining reporting sessions.

This post is for consultant radiologists with special interest in a number of areas including:

• ENT radiology
• Genito-urinary radiology
• GI radiology
• Chest radiology
• Cardiac Radiology
