This Radiation Therapist opportunity is based in a welcoming cancer center in south-central Massachusetts, in a community that offers the best of small-town New England life with easy access to larger urban amenities. The area is known for its friendly neighborhoods, historic character, and affordability compared with many parts of the Northeast. Located within driving distance of Worcester, Springfield, Providence, and Boston, this community allows you to enjoy a quieter lifestyle while still being close to major cultural, educational, and recreational hubs. The surrounding region offers numerous outdoor activities and scenic New England landscapes. Nearby conservation areas and the Westville Dam and Lake area provide space for walking, running, picnicking, and taking in the changing seasons. Local shops, family-owned restaurants, and community events create a strong sense of connection and belonging. For those who enjoy weekend day trips, the broader Central Massachusetts and New England area offers museums, performing arts venues, historic sites, and year-round festivals. Within this modern cancer center, you will join a dedicated radiation oncology team that is committed to providing high-quality, compassionate care close to home for patients in the region. The center features contemporary treatment spaces and is integrated with a larger health system, allowing patients and clinicians to benefit from coordinated, multidisciplinary care. As a Radiation Therapist here, you will work side-by-side with radiation oncologists, medical oncologists, nurses, dosimetrists, physicists, and support staff who value collaboration, open communication, and mutual respect. In this role, you will be responsible for delivering safe, accurate, and timely radiation treatments according to physician prescriptions and treatment plans. Your typical day will include reviewing daily schedules and treatment orders, preparing treatment rooms and equipment, verifying patient identity and set-up, and delivering external beam radiation therapy using linear accelerators and image-guided techniques. You will perform daily quality checks related to patient positioning and equipment function, and promptly report any concerns to physics and medical staff. Patient care is at the heart of this position. You will help guide patients through their treatment course by explaining procedures, answering questions, and providing reassurance and support. You will monitor patients for changes in condition and treatment tolerance and communicate observations to the care team. Documentation in the electronic medical record and oncology information system is a key part of your responsibilities, ensuring that treatments are recorded accurately and that care is coordinated efficiently. The cancer center cares primarily for adult patients with a wide variety of malignancies, including common disease sites such as breast, prostate, lung, and head and neck cancers. Depending on experience and interest, there may be opportunities to work with advanced treatment techniques such as IMRT and IGRT. The patient volume is structured to allow you to focus on both technical precision and personalized attention, with patient-centered scheduling that promotes safety and quality. Shifts are generally daytime, weekday hours aligned with outpatient cancer center operations, allowing for a balanced schedule and predictable routine. Occasional flexibility may be requested to support patient needs, equipment maintenance schedules, or special procedures. You will be supported by an experienced leadership group that encourages continuing education, professional growth, and participation in quality improvement activities. This position is ideal for a Radiation Therapist who is passionate about providing high-quality care in a community-based setting, values a supportive and collegial work environment, and enjoys the lifestyle offered by a New England town with easy access to larger cities. You will have the opportunity to build meaningful relationships with patients and colleagues, contribute to a mission-driven cancer program, and develop your skills within a stable and well-respected regional health system.
