What is a junior medical physicist?

Junior Medical Physicists are early-career professionals who apply principles of physics to medicine, particularly in diagnosing and treating diseases through medical imaging and radiation therapy. They typically work under the supervision of senior medical physicists in hospitals, cancer centers, or research institutions. Their responsibilities include ensuring the safety and accuracy of radiation equipment, performing quality control tests, assisting with treatment planning, and supporting clinical research. Junior Medical Physicists are often recent graduates or are completing certification and training required to become fully qualified medical physicists.

What does a junior medical physicist do?

As a Junior Medical Physicist, your daily responsibilities often include performing quality assurance tests on medical imaging and radiation therapy equipment, assisting with the calibration of devices, and ensuring compliance with safety regulations. You will collaborate closely with senior medical physicists, radiation oncologists, and technologists to support patient treatment planning and equipment troubleshooting. This role offers a learning-rich environment where you'll gain hands-on experience while contributing to patient safety and the effective delivery of medical services. Regular mentorship and interdisciplinary teamwork are integral to your professional development in this position.

What skills and qualifications are needed to be a junior medical physicist?

To thrive as a Junior Medical Physicist, you need a solid background in physics or related fields, typically supported by a relevant degree such as an MSc in Medical Physics. Familiarity with radiation safety protocols, treatment planning systems, and dosimetry equipment is important, and progress towards certification from a recognized board is often expected. Strong analytical thinking, attention to detail, and effective communication skills help you collaborate with clinical teams and ensure accurate patient care. These combined skills are crucial for maintaining patient safety, regulatory compliance, and the integrity of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.

What is the difference between Junior Medical Physics vs Medical Physics Assistant?

AspectJunior Medical PhysicsMedical Physics Assistant
Required CredentialsBachelor's or Master's in Medical Physics or related field; certification may be preferredTypically requires similar educational background; certification less common
Work EnvironmentHospitals, clinics, imaging centers, research facilitiesHospitals, diagnostic imaging departments, research settings
Employer & Industry UsageUsed by healthcare institutions employing medical physicistsCommonly used in hospitals supporting medical physics teams
Job FocusAssisting in medical physics tasks, equipment calibration, quality assuranceSupporting medical physicists with technical and administrative duties

Junior Medical Physics and Medical Physics Assistant roles often overlap in educational background and work environment. The main difference lies in job responsibilities, with Junior Medical Physics focusing more on technical tasks and learning, while Medical Physics Assistants support physicists with administrative and operational duties. Both roles serve as entry points into the medical physics field within healthcare settings.

Job description

Junior Medical Physicist

Valdosta, GA | Full-Time, Direct Hire | $175,000 Annually

Blue United Sourcing is seeking a Junior Medical Physicist to join its established Radiation Oncology team. This opportunity is ideal for a physicist who has completed ABR Part 1, has completed or is well advanced in residency, and is ready to continue progressing toward full board certification while working alongside an experienced ABR-certified physicist.

The Junior Radiation Physicist will work alongside an experienced, ABR-certified physicist and collaborate closely with radiation oncologists, dosimetrists, radiation therapists, and other members of the oncology team. The role supports the safe and accurate delivery of radiation therapy through treatment planning, dosimetry, equipment calibration, quality assurance, radiation safety, and regulatory compliance.

At a Glance

Schedule: Monday–Friday, 40 hours per week

Hours: Primarily 7:30 a.m.–4:00 p.m., with some scheduling flexibility

Weekends: None

Call: None

Setting: Outpatient comprehensive cancer center

Salary: $175,000 annually

ABR: Part 1 completed; candidate must be progressing toward certification

The Opportunity

As part of the Radiation Oncology team, the Junior Medical Physicist will support the safe and accurate delivery of radiation therapy across a diverse adult oncology population. You will work closely with radiation oncologists, dosimetrists, radiation therapists, and an experienced medical physicist in an environment where the clinical disciplines work collaboratively throughout the treatment process.

The center treats prostate, breast, lung, head and neck, brain, liver, SRS, SBRT, and other adult oncology cases.

What You'll Be Doing
  • Calibrate radiation therapy equipment and verify safe and accurate operation.
  • Perform and verify calculations for external beam radiation therapy and brachytherapy.
  • Perform and document required clinical dosimetry.
  • Participate in radiation surveys, leak testing, and radioactive source testing.
  • Support quality assurance activities for external beam therapy and brachytherapy.
  • Assist with radiation equipment maintenance oversight and service documentation.
  • Support compliance with NRC, ACR, state, and other applicable regulatory standards.
  • Participate in the development and review of medical physics policies and procedures.
  • Maintain accurate clinical and quality assurance documentation.
  • Provide radiation safety education and support to hospital personnel.
  • Collaborate with the clinical team on treatment planning, patient safety, and continuous quality improvement.
Your Clinical Environment

The department operates with:

  • Two matched Elekta Versa HD linear accelerators
  • Vision RT surface-guided radiation therapy
  • Large-bore 4D CT simulator
  • Elekta Mosaic integrated with EPIC
  • Treatment planning transitioning from Pinnacle to Elekta Monaco
  • Hexapod six-degree-of-freedom technology

Elekta experience is preferred, but permanent hires may be trained on the facility’s equipment.

The Team

You’ll be joining a multidisciplinary cancer center where medical oncology, radiation oncology, laboratory, pharmacy, research, social work, dietary services, and cancer registry services are located within the same center.

The department currently has an experienced, ABR-certified physicist on staff. Candidates should have completed ABR Part 1 and completed their residency or be sufficiently advanced in their residency and certification process, as the facility is unable to support a full residency program.

Requirements

What You'll Bring
  • Graduate degree in Medical Physics preferred; an appropriate graduate degree in a related physical science may also be considered.
  • Successful completion of ABR Part 1.
  • Medical Physics residency completed or sufficiently advanced to continue toward ABR certification.
  • Board eligible for ABR or ABMP certification.
  • Knowledge of radiation therapy equipment calibration, treatment planning, dosimetry, quality assurance, and radiation safety.
  • Strong attention to accuracy, documentation, and patient safety.
  • Effective communication and interpersonal skills.
  • Current healthcare provider CPR certification.

Benefits

Why Consider This Opportunity?

Join a collaborative Radiation Oncology team where medical physics plays an integral role in treatment quality and patient safety. You will have the opportunity to work alongside an experienced ABR-certified physicist while continuing to develop professionally and progress toward full board certification.

The position offers a consistent weekday schedule with no weekends and no call, within a comprehensive cancer center where the oncology disciplines work closely together to provide coordinated patient care.

In addition to joining an established oncology team, this opportunity offers:

  • Monday–Friday day-shift schedule
  • No weekends
  • No call
  • 401(k) with employer match
  • Paid Time Off
  • Low healthcare insurance premiums
