We require excellent communication and interpersonal skills. You will ideally have a genuine interest in endoscopy and the ability to understand and operate technical equipment.

Endoscopy experience is desirable but not essential as there is a comprehensive in-house training programme available where you will work with senior members of the team.

We currently have three endoscopy rooms; we undertake approximately 10,000 procedures a year which include upper and lower GI Endoscopy, ERCP’s and Bronchoscopy.  

We have JAG accreditation and take part in the national bowel cancer screening programme. You will work with the endoscopy team to provide safe, effective and high-quality patient care maintaining standards that meet the requirements of JAG, the GRS and the CQC.
