Radiation oncologist

Sykehuset Telemark HF (STHF) is responsible for hospital and specialist healthcare services for around 170,000 inhabitants in Telemark. The hospital's patient care is organized in seven clinics, and has both somatic and psychiatric activities at several locations in Telemark.

In 2026, the Center for Cancer, Palliative Care and Blood Diseases, including a unit for radiation therapy, will open. There are constantly new treatment options for cancer treatment and we must establish and build up expertise in radiation oncology so that we ensure the best treatment for our patients.

We treat most diagnostic groups that require a good breadth of expertise. In order to meet our patients' needs in the best possible way and to safeguard the increasing degree of specialized knowledge for each cancer diagnosis, patient treatment with us is organized in specialist groups.

We want to build a team where you and your colleagues thrive in the longer term as well. We are therefore interested in hearing how we can facilitate your flourishing and that your qualities contribute to our team becoming even better. If you have experience and/or an interest in radiation therapy, you will be able to actively help build up our upcoming radiation therapy unit.

If you already live in the area, you may be familiar with the opportunities our wonderful county can offer. If you are considering moving to Telemark, we can boast that we have Norway's most attractive cities in 2021, where the twin cities of Skien and Porsgrunn have received the Attractive City Award 2021 for joint efforts and cooperation in turning the loss of industrial jobs into positive and sustainable urban development in Grenland area.
