Job Description

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced and motivated Deputy Department Leader!



The post holder will play a key role in supporting the Department Leader in delivering a high-quality, efficient, and comprehensive clinical illustration service. This includes deputising responsibilities to ensure continuity and excellence across departmental operations.



The department's core mission is to produce clinical illustrative materials that support patient care, medical education, research, and publication. A significant focus is placed on clinical photography, including medico-legal documentation and the secure capture of medical evidence for external agencies.



In addition, the department is responsible for uploading visual data into the Trust's electronic patient records system, ensuring that digital images--particularly those from diagnostic departments such as radiology--are securely managed and appropriately utilised.



To understand the role in more detail, please refer to the attached job description and person specification.



We are an award-winning NHS Foundation Trust working alongside health and social care colleagues across the county to provide acute and community healthcare services to more than 420,000 people across Mansfield, Ashfield, Newark and Sherwood, and parts of Derbyshire and Lincolnshire.



We put the patient at the heart of everything that we do and it is our aim to make sure that every patient is treated as we would want a member of our own family to be treated. At the same time, we expect our staff to be caring, kind and courteous to each other and to look out for each other. We believe that we are truly a clinically-led organisation.



We are proud that our Trust colleagues have voted us the best acute Trust to work for in the East Midlands for seven years running in the National NHS Staff Survey, while the Care Quality Commission has rated our Trust as 'outstanding' for care and our King's Mill Hospital as the only 'outstanding' NHS-run hospital in the East Midlands.
