Do you thrive in a fast-paced environment where precision really matters?

Behind every diagnosis, treatment plan, and clinical decision is a team of imaging professionals delivering exceptional care and producing the high-quality images clinicians rely on every day.

As a Diagnostic Radiographer at The London Clinic, you'll play a pivotal role across a diverse imaging service, performing General X-ray, Theatre and Fluoroscopic examinations while developing your expertise within one of London's leading independent healthcare organisations. With exposure to advanced imaging techniques, structured training in Interventional Radiology, and clear development pathways into CT, MRI and Breast Imaging, this is an excellent opportunity to grow your career while making a meaningful difference to patients.

A little about the role

We're a friendly, collaborative imaging team committed to delivering outstanding patient care and diagnostic excellence. Every day is different, and that's what makes this role so rewarding.

  • Position patients accurately and adapt imaging techniques to individual patient needs
  • Advocate for patient and staff safety by minimising radiation exposure

  • Utilise RIS and PACS systems effectively, ensuring accurate patient records and documentation
  • Participate in departmental rotas, including weekends, nights, on-call and out-of-hours duties
  • Work collaboratively with multidisciplinary teams to support seamless patient care
  • Provide clear explanations and reassurance to patients throughout their imaging journey
  • Maintain the highest standards of patient confidentiality and information governance
  • Contribute to quality improvement, service development and continued professional learning
