NHS Lothian is committed to encouraging equality and diversity among our workforce and eliminating unlawful discrimination. The aim is for our workforce to be truly representative and for each employee to feel respected and able to give their best.

To this end, NHS Lothian welcomes applications from all sections of society.

We will fully support disabled candidates, and candidates with long-term conditions or who are neurodivergent by making reasonable adjustments to our recruitment policy and practices.

Applicants must have full GMC Registration, a license to practise and eligible for inclusion in the GMC Specialist Register. Those trained in the UK should have evidence of higher specialist training leading to CCT or be within 6 months of confirmed entry from the date of interview. Portfolio Pathway (formerly known as CESR - Certificate of Eligibility for Specialist Registration) route doctors are only eligible to apply for a substantive consultant post once it has been awarded. Non-UK applicants must demonstrate equivalent training.

NHS Lothian are seeking a motivated, skilled radiologist to join our team of more than 30 radiologists based at the Western General (Edinburgh) and St John's (Livingston) Hospitals.

You will have all the skills expected of a general radiologist, particularly cross-sectional imaging, and a specialist area of interest suitable to the department will be considered. The ability to perform image guide biopsy and drainage would be preferable.

You will contribute to the on-call rota, which comes with access to a home workstation. This can also be used for home working for some of your normal working week.

It is essential you are registered with the GMC, have a licence to practice and be either on, or within 6 months of eligibility of admission to the specialist register at time of interview (intended May 2025 or later).
