Job overview

We are looking for an organised and motivated individual to join our busy Radiology team, supporting the coordination of outpatient appointments across a range of Radiology specialities.

In this role, you will work closely with Radiology team leaders and colleagues from other departments to book appointments, liaise directly with patients, and help ensure clinics run smoothly and efficiently. You’ll also communicate with doctors and area leads to confirm session availability and support effective scheduling.

A clear understanding of NHS Wales appointment booking guidelines and a commitment to excellent communication are essential. Experience working with waiting lists and confidence using spreadsheets would be an advantage.

The ability to speak Welsh is desirable for this post; Welsh and/or English speakers are equally welcome to apply

Main duties of the job

As a key member of the Radiology admin team, you’ll manage your own workload with minimal supervision, coordinating outpatient appointments across multiple Radiology modalities. You’ll work closely with consultants, managers, Radiology leads and other departments to ensure Radiology lists are scheduled efficiently and patients are supported throughout the booking process.

You’ll handle telephone and face-to-face enquiries with professionalism and empathy, maintaining confidentiality at all times. Responsibilities include registering and validating referrals, updating patient records on RadIS, and ensuring timely clinical prioritisation and appointment scheduling in line with NHS Wales guidelines.

You’ll monitor waiting lists, Radiology list capacity, and ensure appointment slots are filled appropriately. This includes arranging interpreters or transport when needed, and communicating sensitive information to patients with care. You’ll also support data quality checks, report on waiting list performance, and contribute to service improvements.

Additional duties include assisting with Radiology list cancellations, supporting additional, short notice lists, mentoring new staff, maintaining supplies, and providing cover during staff absences. You’ll attend mandatory training, participate in personal development reviews, and follow BCUHB’s risk management and data protection policies.
