Senior Clinical Physiologist (Band 6)
The Respiratory Physiology service at Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust has an opportunity to appoint a motivated, enthusiastic individual to the role of Senior Clinical Physiologist (Band 6). We are an IQIPS accredited service providing a comprehensive range of diagnostic testing on a wide variety of patients with both respiratory and non-respiratory conditions. You will join a busy, friendly, multidisciplinary team including physiologists, clinical scientists, administrators and consultants.
The role is primarily based at the Community Diagnostic Centre in Willesden but involves rotation to lung function labs on other sites and the Sleep Centre. There will be opportunities for interested candidates to develop an interest in CPET, oxygen assessments and complex sleep study analysis.
Away from clinical testing, we host students from the PTP and STP courses so there will be an opportunity to be involved in teaching, training and supervision of junior staff. As part of our UKAS accreditation we work with a strong QI mindset and there is an opportunity to participate in service audits.
Essential Requirements:
- Previous experience in lung function
- A science background with a BSc in Healthcare Science (respiratory major) or equivalent
- Preferably obtained the ARTP practitioners' examination and are working towards STP equivalence
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
