Senior Cardiac Physiologist - Echo
The closing date is 19 June 2025
Job summary
We are seeking a Cardiac Physiologist to join our friendly, supportive team. Experience in echo isnot essential, as we have a strong track record of successful training. With two BSE examiners in the department, we are well-positioned to support your professional growth and skill advancement.
Our busy echo service delivers a broad range of diagnostic investigations including adult and paediatric outpatient and inpatient echo, stress echo (DSE and e-bike), bubble and contrast studies, congenital clinics, and a cardio-oncology clinic. We utilise state-of-the-art echo machines with 4D capability. We are currently establishing several physiologist-led services and actively pursuing BSE departmental accreditation.

- Flexibility to maintain existing invasive skill, with support to transition into a specialist role when ready.
- Compressed working hours: 8am to 6pm, 4 days per week.
- No on-call duties for echo.
- 20% off probe time to reduce musculoskeletal strain and support role expansion and CPD.
