About The Position

We have partnered with a premier healthcare provider in California dedicated to delivering exceptional patient care and cutting-edge diagnostics. They are seeking a dynamic, hands-on leader to step into the role of Imaging Services Assistant Manager. This is an incredible opportunity for a senior technologist looking to step into leadership, or an experienced supervisor ready to make a significant impact in a collaborative, patient-centric environment. As the Assistant Manager, you will work side-by-side with the Imaging Services Manager to oversee day-to-day clinical and administrative operations. This is a "working manager" role where you will split your time between supervising staff and directly participating in imaging procedures (dependent on your specific licensure). You will help lead a talented team across multiple modalities—including Diagnostic Radiography, Fluoroscopy, DEXA, Mammography, Ultrasound, and CT—while ensuring the highest standards of safety, regulatory compliance, and patient satisfaction.
