Vacant job

Do you want to work close to healthcare and at the same time contribute to a broad and cohesive radiation safety work in Region Norrbotten? We are now looking for a hospital physicist to join our Radiation Safety team in Region Norrbotten. Here, you will have a role that combines clinical work with strategic development – in close collaboration with engaged colleagues and operations across the entire region.

The Care Safety Unit is part of the Health and Medical Care Department and works at a regional level with issues concerning patient safety, care hygiene, infection control, radiation safety, and medication. We play a central role in supporting healthcare operations, strengthening the shared patient safety culture, and developing structures, methods, and processes that contribute to safe and secure care. The position is located in the Radiation Safety team, where you will become an important part of this work.

We are looking for

We are looking for you who are a licensed hospital physicist, or who will soon complete your education. You should have excellent knowledge of Swedish in both speech and writing, proficiency in M365, and an interest in clinical radiation safety work. It is meritorious if you have work experience from:

• nuclear medicine
• SPECT/CT and/or radioiodine treatment
• quality assurance and radiation protection
• emergency preparedness or authority work.

We also view it positively if you are curious about development, especially within digitalization, programming, automation, data analysis, and AI support in systematic radiation safety work.

We place great importance on personal qualities. You are structured, communicative, and have the ability to collaborate, valuing and seeing the benefits of working with others. You also contribute with independence and the courage to act according to your own convictions.

What you will work with

The assignment primarily covers nuclear medicine activities, including work related to SPECT/CT, diagnostics, radioiodine treatment, quality assurance, and radiation protection. The work is carried out in close collaboration with other radiation activities within the region, such as radiology, mammography, interventional activities, surgical activities, and dental radiology. The role is therefore suitable for you who wish to deepen your knowledge within nuclear medicine while simultaneously contributing to a broad and cohesive radiation safety work in Region Norrbotten.

As a hospital physicist, you will among other things work with quality assurance, optimization, dosimetry, radiation protection assessments, education, advice, routines, and authority-related issues. You will have close collaboration with doctors, biomedical analysts, radiographers, operating room staff, biomedical engineers, managers, and other professions.

The assignment may also include work with the region's preparedness for radiological and nuclear incidents. This is an area where the Radiation Safety team has an important advisory and coordinating role, in close collaboration with relevant operations.

Within the Radiation Safety team, there is room to deepen knowledge within digitalization, programming, automation, data analysis, and AI support in systematic radiation safety work, and to translate new ideas into practical working methods that strengthen follow-up, quality assurance, reporting, and support to operations.

• A combination of clinical work and strategic development
• An engaged team with high competence
• Opportunity for specialist training if you are at the beginning of your career
