Job Description
Job DescriptionStep into a high-impact role as a Radiation Therapist with our premier travel healthcare program, delivering precise and compassionate cancer care to patients in need. Based in Watertown, New York, this assignment blends clinical excellence with the adventure of exploring diverse communities across the country. From your first day on 02/16/2026, you’ll join a dynamic oncology team, contribute to cutting-edge treatment protocols, support patients through their journeys, and broaden your professional horizons in a variety of settings. This opportunity is designed as a weeks-long engagement with guaranteed hours, offering both stability and the freedom to grow.
Watertown sits on the edge of the Thousand Islands region, where the St. Lawrence River sparkles under seasonal skies and outdoor exploration is part of daily life. Imagine mornings on scenic trails, afternoons by scenic waterways, and evenings in a welcoming community that values your expertise. New York State itself offers a rich tapestry of experiences: the Adirondack wilderness for weekend adventures, Finger Lakes wine country, world-class museums and cultural events, and easy access to major urban centers for professional networking. For those who crave variety, our nationwide network makes it possible to work in multiple locations across the U.S., expanding clinical exposure and sharpening skills while maintaining a stable placement in Watertown.
Role specifics and benefits: As a Radiation Therapist in this assignment, you will be responsible for delivering precise radiation therapy plans and treatments, setting up patients with meticulous attention to safety and comfort, utilizing image-guided techniques and modern linear accelerators, performing daily quality assurance checks, and maintaining accurate documentation in collaboration with radiation oncologists, dosimetrists, physicists, nurses, and support staff. You’ll participate in treatment planning reviews, contribute to patient education and supportive care, and engage in continuous quality improvement initiatives. The position offers clear pathways for professional growth within the radiation therapy specialty, including exposure to advanced imaging modalities, adaptive therapy concepts, and multidisciplinary tumor boards. In addition to competitive compensation, you’ll benefit from a completion bonus, housing assistance, and extension opportunities that provide flexibility as your career evolves. Your overall package includes robust per diem considerations, travel stipends where applicable, and opportunities to extend assignments to deepen your experience. A dedicated real-time support team is available 24/7 to assist you while you travel with the company, ensuring you’re never alone on the road or in a new clinical environment.
Compelling advantages accompany the clinical responsibilities. You’ll receive a weekly pay range of $2,585-$2,781, with guaranteed hours of 40.0 per week, providing financial consistency and predictability as you plan your days, meals, and downtime. The employer fosters a culture of empowerment, recognizing that your clinical judgment, empathy, and technical proficiency are essential to superior patient outcomes. Continuous access to professional development resources, mentorship, and a collaborative environment helps you advance within the radiation therapy field while balancing personal well-being. The role also emphasizes safety, compliance, and adherence to evidence-based practices, reinforcing your standing as a trusted member of the oncology care team.
Beautiful places and moments to savor will punctuate your work life. In Watertown, the pace invites focus and expertise, while the surrounding region invites exploration—from riverfront strolls to quiet evenings in cozy bistros after shifts. If you ever choose to roam, the state’s scenic diversity—from the Adirondacks to lake country and historic towns—offers new inspirations and fresh perspectives that can recharge your professional spirit and personal resilience.
Our company values your growth and well-being. We are devoted to empowering staff through clear career pathways, ongoing education, leadership opportunities, and a supportive work environment that prioritizes work-life balance. You’ll join colleagues who celebrate collaboration, integrity, and patient-centered care, all while maintaining the highest standards of clinical excellence.
