You will manage the departmental budget covering staffing, supplies, and capital equipment, participate in equipment selection and replacement planning, analyze operational and financial performance data, and lead improvement initiatives
You will also partner closely with radiologists, referring clinicians, and hospital leadership on service development
You will own patient experience within the department, monitoring feedback and complaint themes, addressing service failures directly, and ensuring that scheduling, communication, and wait times are managed with the patient's perspective in mind rather than solely the department's convenience

A relevant imaging credential is required, such as ARRT registration, together with any Washington State credential needed for practice
