Most radiologists who love teaching never quite get the chance to do it on their own terms. The opportunities tend to be occasional, squeezed into the edges of a clinical job, or tied to a single course that comes and goes. The deeper satisfaction, of genuinely shaping how the next generation learns, and of building something that lasts, is harder to come by than it should be.
We are trying to offer exactly that, and we are looking for the right people to do it with.
Revise Radiology is going through a real transformation, from an exam resource into a specialist training partner that supports radiologists across the whole of their careers. We are building subspecialty teams, a curated case library that is among the largest in the world, and a way of teaching built on genuine practice rather than passive viewing. To do it properly, we need consultants and senior trainees who care as much about education as we do. This is an honest account of what joining us actually offers, and what it asks in return.
What you would actually be doing
The work is meaningful, and it is real. As a faculty member you would help shape the content and teaching in your area, rather than simply deliver someone else's material.
For consultants, that might mean leading a subspecialty as a Programme Director: taking ownership of the cases in your field, making sure they genuinely teach, shaping how your subspecialty is learned across our platform, and building a small team of reviewers and contributors around you. It is a leadership role with real scope, and the chance to put your stamp on how thousands of radiologists come to understand your area.
For post-examination registrars, it might mean joining a subspecialty team, contributing to something that matters, and building genuine teaching and leadership experience alongside consultants you can learn from. For someone early in their consultant journey, that kind of structured teaching experience, and the mentorship that comes with it, is hard to find and genuinely valuable.
In both cases, you would be working with a case bank of more than twenty-two thousand cases, which means there is no shortage of meaningful work, and a real opportunity to build something that outlasts any single course.
What you would gain
I want to be straightforward about this, because it matters and because honesty is part of how we work.
These roles are not paid in a conventional fee. Instead, the recognition comes through development that we believe has lasting value. Every faculty member is welcomed into our Practice Radiology programme, which includes personal mentoring on the things that genuinely change a radiologist's working life over time: reporting efficiency, building a sustainable and flexible career, and long-term financial wellness. These are not abstractions. They are the practical skills that determine whether a radiology career feels survivable or genuinely good, and they are rarely taught anywhere.
One of our firmest beliefs is that education should be seen as an investment. Learning the right tools and ways of working is often worth far more, over a career, than being paid for every single task in the moment. The radiologists who thrive with us tend to be those who understand that, and who value growing themselves as much as the work itself.
Beyond that, there is the development that comes simply from teaching. There is no faster way to deepen your own expertise than to explain it clearly to someone else, and no better way to prepare yourself for college examining or leadership than to practise it in a supportive setting. Many who teach with us find their own reporting and their own confidence improve as much as their students'.
The kind of people we are looking for
We care more about character than about titles. The people who fit best with us are passionate about education, generous with their knowledge, and without big egos. We would always rather work with someone kind, grounded and genuinely committed than someone brilliant but difficult.
We are also looking for people who believe in what we are building. Revise Radiology has never been a money-making organisation and never will be. Since the Southwest FRCR courses began in 2008, this has always been about giving, and about finding sustainable ways to keep giving to causes and to people less privileged than we are. That conviction runs through everything we do, and increasingly beyond radiology itself, through our work with young people in sports, music, employment and enterprise. The faculty who flourishes with us share that spirit.
Why it matters
Radiology training is under real pressure, and good teaching has never mattered more. The trainees coming through now deserve preparation that is rigorous, honest, and built around how people actually learn, and the consultants of the future deserve a path into teaching and leadership that does not depend on luck or on the edges of a busy job.
If you love teaching, if you want to shape how your subspecialty is learned, and if you want to grow your own career while you do it, there is a place for you here. We are building something we believe will become world class, and we would like to build it with people who care.
If that sounds like you, or like someone you know, I would genuinely love to hear from you.
