Job Advert
Applications are invited for the above Band 6 post in Radiology at Dr Gray’s Hospital, Elgin which is situated on the south coast of the Moray Firth within an area of outstanding natural beauty. Moray has many beautiful sandy beaches along the coast which benefits from a dry, mild climate. Elgin is situated in the north east of Scotland, 40 miles from Inverness and 70 miles from Aberdeen.
We are looking for highly motivated and enthusiastic individual, who wishes to be a part of our friendly and growing team. This post will allow the candidate to gain a broad spectrum of experience, specialise in CT and further develop your confidence/leadership skills as an autonomous professional radiographer.
The department provides a General Radiography service, including 24 hour A&E cover, Dental, Fluoro, CT, DEXA and Ultrasound, for GP’s, Orthopaedics, Medical, General Surgery, A&E, Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Paediatrics, Maxillofacial, Theatres and community sites.

Dr Gray’s Hospital is the hub for a group of 4 GP run hospitals spread throughout Moray. As part of the duties, the successful individual may be expected to support these outlying single-handed departments once their competencies are achieved.
Successful candidate will be expected to participate in an Out-of-Hour service with on-call. However, we will be moving to a more work/life friendly shift system. To meet the considerable demands of moving home, and to support recruitment, NHS Grampian operates a Relocation Expenses Policy which the successful candidate can apply for.
