Radiography jobs in Plymouth.

Diagnostic and therapeutic radiography remains a national shortage area, with imaging departments relying on locum cover to protect reporting turnaround and cancer waiting times, and radiotherapy centres competing for the same registrants across linac capacity, treatment planning and pre-treatment. Actionus supplies HCPC registered diagnostic and therapeutic radiographers, including dosimetry staff, for CT, MRI, general, mammography, interventional and radiotherapy work on flexible and long-term bookings.

Hiring in Plymouth

What the Plymouth market looks like.

Plymouth is the major acute centre for south west Devon and south east Cornwall, and Derriford takes tertiary referrals across a wide rural catchment. Because the nearest alternative acute sites are an hour or more away, hard-to-fill posts often carry longer bookings.
