Junior Clinician in Small Animal Diagnostic Imaging

The University of Glasgow Small Animal Hospital is seeking to recruit a Junior Clinician to join our small animal imaging team as Diagnostic Imaging intern. This position might suit someone who has recently completed a rotating or previous imaging internship and who is looking for the next step towards specialization.

Applications are invited from candidates with a veterinary degree registerable with RCVS who have completed a rotating internship or equivalent, possess proof or eligibility for your right to work in the UK, an excellent command of written and spoken English and strong communication skills. The post offers scope for research and will also involve the delivery of clinical teaching to undergraduates, and interns.

You will be joining a friendly Imaging team of three other European Diagnostic Imaging specialists, an advanced practitioner/ultrasonographer, three radiographers and a Diagnostic Imaging Junior clinician. Our diagnostic imaging suite includes an on-site 1.5T MRI (Siemens Magnetom Essenza 1.5T MRI), a new 80-slice CT scanner (Canon Aquilion Lightning), digital radiography, and C-arm and ultrasonography (GE Logiq E9 for general ultrasound and a GE Vivid E95 for echocardiography) units. Our facilities also include a brandnew, cutting-edge linear accelerator, radio-iodine unit, dedicated ICU and excellent in-house laboratory.

The successful candidate will have the opportunity to support the delivery of an efficient and effective small animal imaging referral service by providing clinical activity and help develop the Imaging department, which acts as a hub between a tight-knit, supportive multidisciplinary team including many specialists working in a wide range of services within our award-winning state-of-the-art Small Animal Hospital.

This post is offered on a 1 year fixed-term basis and offers the early-stage clinical experience required as vets prepare for further specialist training, for example through European Board of Veterinary Specialisation (EBVS®) approved residencies and/or masters formal training programmes. While appointments may be extended for a short fixed term period where this would be in the mutual interest, in the interests of ensuring that veterinary career development is supported, and to assist with recruitment to the University’s EBVS® approved Residency and our own Masters Programmes, the one year duration will remain the normal duration.
