Why this role exists

A scan is often the moment a woman finally gets an answer, or the moment she gets frightening news. Fifteen minute slots make both go badly. We built the list around thirty.

What the work involves

• Perform transabdominal and transvaginal gynaecological ultrasound
• Carry out early pregnancy and reassurance scanning, including managing bad news well
• Report independently to agreed protocols
• Support follicle tracking for women in fertility pathways

What we ask for

• CASE-accredited postgraduate ultrasound qualification
• HCPC registration where your route requires it
• Competence in obstetric and gynaecological imaging
• Enhanced DBS, which we can arrange

What you get

• Thirty minute appointments, protected
• No nights, no weekends, no on-call
• Pension, 33 days leave including bank holidays, and a CPD budget

What this pays, and why

NHS band 7 sonographer roles run roughly £46,000 to £53,000, with recruitment premiums in some trusts. Independent providers pay £55,000 to £70,000. Our band sits in that private range with a lighter list.
