NHS Grampian is seeking a radiotherapy physicist to support the commissioning and development work for a major equipment replacement, as well as participate in the full range of clinical and scientific activities required for the delivery of the routine Radiotherapy Service. This is a one-year fixed term position.The Radiotherapy Service is housed in modern purpose-built accommodation and facilities include: three TrueBeam linear accelerators; a CT simulator; Aria patient information system; Eclipse treatment planning system with RapidPlan; and a GammaMedPlus HDR Brachytherapy Unit. A TrueBeam linac, Aria, and Eclipse will all be replaced with new systems or upgraded in the period 01-04-2021 to 31-03-2022. The new equipment may include, depending on the outcome of the procurement, an upgrade of our breathing gating system in the CT Simulator, a new Surface-Guided Radiotherapy system, and a 6-degrees-of-freedom couch. Support for the implementation of these new technologies will be a significant part of this post.Essentially all computer-planned radiotherapy treatments in NHS Grampian are delivered using VMAT or IMRT. We have an active SABR programme, treating both primary lung cancers and oligo-metastatic disease for all anatomical locations. All left-sided breast treatments are delivered using Deep Inspiration Breath Hold (DIBH). The Brachytherapy Service currently provides gynaecological treatments for both NHS Grampian and NHS Highland and we also deliver skin brachytherapy treatments for small non-melanoma lesions.This post requires a good Honours Degree in an appropriate physical science and a relevant postgraduate degree (MSc and/or PhD). Applicants should be registered as a Clinical Scientist with the Healthcare Professions Council (HCPC) or expect to obtain registration imminently, e.g. for candidates at the end of their training programme.NHS Grampian’s Medical Physics Department puts science at the core of service delivery through innovation, learning and excellence; it has a long history of innovation and research and continues to produce research of the highest quality. We encourage informal enquiries: please contact Dr John McLellan, to get further details or, to apply on-line, go to
