The opportunity

We're working exclusively with a well-established independent medical imaging provider to recruit an experienced MRI Lead Radiographer. Based at a key diagnostic centre in Brighton with responsibility across satellite sites, this is a senior role combining clinical excellence with service leadership.

You'll oversee the day-to-day running of MRI services, manage a team of radiographers, and work closely with the Centre Manager to drive service development and training. A fantastic opportunity for an experienced MRI practitioner ready to step up — or consolidate — in a leadership capacity.

What you'll be doing

  • Performing a wide range of MRI scans autonomously across diverse patient groups, including in the absence of a radiologist
  • Managing and developing the radiographers working within and rotating through the MRI service
  • Organising daily workload, optimising appointment scheduling, and coordinating equipment maintenance
  • Producing monthly and annual service performance reports and liaising with clinicians on scan referrals
  • Supporting service development and training across the Brighton centre and satellite sites

What we're looking for

  • BSc Diagnostic Radiography (or DCR equivalent) with current HCPC registration
  • Significant post-qualification MRI experience with a strong cross-sectional imaging background

Cannulation qualification

  • Previous experience in a management or service leadership role
  • Full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle (essential — multi-site role)
  • Based in the UK (essential for consideration)
