Headline

Do you thrive in a fast-paced environment where precision really matters?

Behind every scan, every targeted cancer treatment, and every patient success story is a specialist team delivering exceptional care with expertise, accuracy and compassion.

And that's where you come in.

This is an exciting opportunity to become our Theranostic Lead Technologist, taking the lead in a growing and innovative Molecular Radiotherapy (MRT) service. Working at the forefront of theranostics and molecular imaging, you'll coordinate and deliver advanced radionuclide therapies, help shape service development, and support patients throughout their treatment journey. From planning therapies and managing patient pathways to working with cutting-edge PET/CT and SPECT/CT technology, you'll play a pivotal role in providing life-changing care while helping drive the future of molecular medicine at The London Clinic.

A little about the role

As our Theranostic Lead Technologist, we will look to you to be the operational lead for our Molecular Radiotherapy service.

No two days are quite the same. One day you may be overseeing therapy planning, coordinating admissions and providing radiation safety advice to patients and carers. The next, you'll be undertaking PET/CT and Nuclear Medicine investigations, supporting service improvements, participating in research activities, or mentoring colleagues within the department.

We're a collaborative team that prides itself on delivering exceptional patient-centred care. Together, we work to ensure every patient receives a seamless experience, from diagnosis and imaging through to treatment and follow-up. This role offers the opportunity to combine hands-on clinical practice, leadership, service development and innovation within one of London's leading independent healthcare organisations.
