Radioligand Therapy (RLT) Radiographer
Role summary
Written by MyIslandJob from the job title and employer. See the employer's page for the full description.
The RLT Radiographer supports the safe delivery of radioligand therapy, including patient preparation, imaging, radiation-safety procedures, treatment support and post-treatment monitoring. Applicants are expected to hold an appropriate UK radiography qualification, be registered with the HCPC and have relevant clinical experience, ideally in nuclear medicine, molecular imaging or oncology. The role requires strong knowledge of radiation protection, accurate clinical documentation, excellent communication skills and the ability to work closely with nuclear medicine physicians, physicists, nurses and other healthcare professionals. Candidates should be compassionate, safety-conscious, organised and comfortable supporting patients undergoing complex cancer treatment. Flexibility, teamwork and a commitment to professional development are also expected.
Can I work in the UK?
Never pay anyone for a visa or a job offer. A real employer pays the permit costs and never asks you for money.
How it works
How it works: NHS nurses, doctors and allied health get a Health and Care Worker visa (about 3 weeks, no health surcharge); care workers lost this route on 22 July 2025.
Before you apply: Nurses, doctors and most allied health staff must be registered or licensed locally before they start: expect checks on your degree and licence, often an English test, and often an exam or an assessment. Ask the employer who handles it and how long it takes. Most pharma and device office jobs do not need it.
Watch for: Pay follows the NHS pay bands and is usually at least GBP 25,000. Nurses and allied health also need UK professional registration; care workers cannot be sponsored from abroad.
