Visa note
While this position offers a certificate of sponsorship to the UK, applicants must confirm their visa/work permit eligibility directly with the employer. Having a certificate of sponsorship does not guarantee visa approval, and candidates should verify all immigration requirements with UK Visas and Immigration before applying.
Job Overview
We are looking for an enthusiastic and motivated individual to join our fantastic General Radiography team at Withybush General Hospital. The Radiology department has benefited from significant Welsh government investment over the past three years, with much of the equipment being brand new and more planned replacement in the near future. We have a range of modalities including two CT scanners, MRI, Nuclear Medicine, Ultrasound, General and A&E X-ray rooms and Fluoroscopy.
Although this role is aimed at professionally registered individuals, candidates due to graduate in Radiography courses in Summer 2026 are encouraged to apply. Our small but dynamic team offers great role extension opportunities as a Health Board with radiographers reporting on a range of studies including plain film, fluoroscopy, CT and Nuclear Medicine, as well as other postgraduate study options.
