Job role:
Medica Group is the market leader in the provision of teleradiology and managed radiology services to the UK and Ireland. We are now recruiting for a new colleague to join our growing Ultrasound team in our newly opened clinic in Clonsilla due to a maternity leave cover.
As we are constantly expanding our business, at this moment, we require specialisations in MSK, DDH or paediatrics. However, if you do not possess any of them but have hands-on experience in general ultrasound, please get in touch

However, we are open to discussing working hours with the successful candidate to enable a good work/life balance, including part-time hours.
