We are looking for our next qualified Therapeutic Radiographer.

Be part of something bigger, there’s a career for everyone at the University of Edinburgh.

Our technical staff are essential to supporting teaching, research, and the smooth operation of our facilities.

You will work both in a team and independently to organise and prioritise daily/weekly workload and will contribute to teaching veterinary students in some aspects of Radiation Oncology.
