Job summary
Cardiac MRI Radiographer
Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS Foundation Trust
Permanent | 37.5 Hours per Week | Four-Day Working Week
Are you an MRI radiographer looking to develop specialist expertise in cardiac imaging within one of the world's leading congenital heart disease centres?
At Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH), you'll join a highly specialised Cardiac MRI service that delivers world-class imaging for children and adults with congenital and acquired heart disease. Working alongside expert radiographers, cardiologists and cardiac imaging specialists, you'll contribute to imaging that directly informs complex clinical decision-making and helps shape the timing and planning of life-changing interventions and surgery.
This is a rare opportunity to develop advanced skills in Cardiac MRI while enjoying a four-day working week, a supportive multidisciplinary environment and excellent opportunities for professional development.
Main duties of the job
As a Cardiac MRI Radiographer, you will play an important role in delivering a safe, efficient and high-quality specialist imaging service for paediatric and adult patients. You will perform Cardiac MRI examinations, support patients and families throughout their imaging journey, and contribute to the smooth day-to-day running of the service.
The post is based on a 37.5-hour working week worked over four days (08:00-18:00). To support service delivery and provide flexibility across the team, the non-working day rotates each week, meaning postholders work Monday to Friday across the rotation while benefiting from a regular weekday off each week. There are no shift, weekend or on-call commitments associated with this role.
Working alongside expert radiographers, cardiologists, anaesthetists, nurses and physiologists, you will develop specialist knowledge and skills in congenital and paediatric cardiac imaging while contributing to a service recognised for clinical excellence, innovation and research.

Health Play Specialist
Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS Foundation Trust View all jobs
Posted 23 day(s) ago
Reference: 2372040
Job summary
We work closely with all referring specialities, however the BMT patients remain under the care of the BMT service until there are no acute BMT related problems, this period can be between 6 months or a number of years.
Additional support:An area identified as requiring play therapy support is in the sibling donor clinic. The pathway for sibling donors has a clear clinical and ethical framework in line with the Human Tissue Act (2004).
A key aspect of the sibling donor clinic is to support the child and ensure they are adequately prepared. A priority of the donor care pathway is to prevent psychological harm. We currently don't have any play specialist available to input with this clinic and it has been identified that it would be beneficial for play therapy support to be extended to sibling donors.
This would be a new service. We would plan to evaluate the service with patient and carer surveys.
Additionally, we would envisage that we could develop the following areas with increased play staffing:
Availability for support if acute patient needs arises - including support with other allied health professionals.
Support with palliative care discussions.
Bereavement support - this also links with sibling donor care and follow up.
Main duties of the job
Main duties of the job
- To undertake therapeutic assessments and devise play programmes for children and young people in hospital, according to their individual needs and as part of the overall care plan

- To monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of therapeutic interventions using reflective practice to achieve best outcomes

Job summary
Chief Operating Officer Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS Foundation Trust
Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS Foundation Trust (GOSH) is seeking an exceptional Chief Operating Officer to join its Executive Team and lead excellence in operational delivery at one of the world's leading centres for babies, children and young people with rare, complex and difficult-to-treat conditions.
As Chief Operating Officer, you will be a Board-level Executive Director and the senior accountable officer for the delivery, performance and productivity of GOSH's services. Reporting to the Chief Executive, Karl Munslow Ong, and working in close partnership with the Chief Medical Officer and Chief Nurse and your executive colleagues, you will be a convening, partnering leader, influencing every part of GOSH: NHS services, research, private and international care, education and corporate teams. You will be Senior Responsible Officer for the cancer transformation programme, Lead Director for Emergency Planning Resilience and Response, and Senior Information Risk Owner for the Trust.
This is a role for a leader who builds capability, followership and energy. As GOSH develops a more distributed model of leadership, you will grow the leadership capacity of our care groups, devolve real decision-making, and create the conditions in which operational and clinical leaders take accountability for improvement themselves.
Main duties of the job
You will put in place a performance framework that informs and empowers rather than simply polices, and you will bring an outward, horizon-scanning perspective and a curiosity around innovation and adaptation, anticipating how shifts in demand, technology, workforce and the wider system will shape children's healthcare, and positioning GOSH to meet that future rather than react to it.
You will also help navigate a genuine tension: a growing national emphasis on community-based care that does not always align neatly with GOSH's role as a specialist tertiary children's hospital.
We are looking for an accomplished, credible and values-led operational leader with significant senior management experience in an NHS Trust, and a track record of leading improvement and change in operational health services of real complexity, through cross-organisational working, under pressure. You will bring demonstrable success in developing clinical operations leadership teams, and the ability to sustain improvement through periods of significant disruption, such as a major capital project. You will combine strong operational grip and a determination to deliver the best possible services for patients with a nuanced leadership style that flexes to circumstance, and you will lead through influence, partnership and collaboration with world-class colleagues, in clinical specialties and across the organisation.
About us
GOSH is committed to recruiting the best person for the job, based solely on their ability and individual merit as measured against the criteria for the role; through a process that is fair, open, consistent and free from bias and discrimination.
We are committed to being a diverse and inclusive employer and foster a culture where all staff are valued, respected and acknowledged. All applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, colour, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, age, disability status or length of time spent unemployed.
We particularly welcome applications from BAME communities, people with disabilities and/or long-term health conditions and LGBT+ community members.
We have policies and procedures in place to ensure that all applicants and employees are treated fairly and consistently. We are proud to be accredited as a Disability Confident Employer, a member of Business Disability Forum and a Stonewall Diversity Champion.
We have active and Executive supported BAME, LGBT+ and Allies, Disability and Long-Term Health Conditions and Women's staff networks. Staff networks are employee-led groups formed around interests, issues and a common bond or background. Staff network members create a positive and inclusive work environment at Great Ormond Street Hospital by actively contributing to the Trust's mission, values and efforts specific to inclusion. All of our staff networks are open to any employee.
