The role

At the St. Antonius Heart Center, you will be at the forefront of new innovations within cardiology. We are one of the most progressive heart centers in the Netherlands with an excellent national and international reputation. Through the collaboration between top specialists in cardiology and cardio-thoracic surgery, we offer the most modern treatment methods and techniques for heart complaints and disorders. With over 2,000 heart surgeries, 2,400 angioplasty treatments, and 1,600 rhythm treatments per year, you are guaranteed a challenging and educational work environment.

What you'll do

As an echocardiographer at the Antonius Heart Center, you will deal with clinical pictures that you do not often encounter in other hospitals. This means that you will perform complex examinations, such as contrast echocardiography and transesophageal echocardiography. Due to our extensive research and treatment programs, you will be involved in discovering innovative techniques that make your work even more interesting. In this independent position, you have an important role in detecting abnormalities during examinations. You will therefore work together with our cardiologists, whom you can turn to with questions. You will share your knowledge and skills with echocardiographers in training, allowing them to practice the profession with enthusiasm and confidence.

Why choose this job?

  • You will work in a leading and innovative heart center where you will see complex pathologies that you hardly encounter elsewhere.
  • You will get more out of your profession by working with the latest techniques and advanced echo examinations.
  • You will receive a great deal of autonomy and will collaborate daily with top specialists in cardiology.
  • You will continuously develop, both in terms of content and in supervising colleagues in training.
  • In consultation with you, we will discuss how many hours you want to work, plus a permanent contract immediately and an allowance in FWG 55.

Your talents

You are enthusiastic, decisive, empathetic, and proactive. With your solution-oriented and analytical thinking skills, you produce good echoes, draft correct reports, and know how to make the right decisions. You put patients at ease and remain calm in stressful situations. Collaboration is central to you in order to achieve the best result.

To start working as an echocardiographer in our Heart Center, you have at least:

  • Diploma as a heart function technician (LOI) with a specialization in echocardiography or
  • Diploma in echocardiography from InHolland;
  • Relevant work experience (pre).
