After leaving Leeds in 2007 he took up a post in a large general practice surgery where he ran a small imaging service consisting of X-ray and ultrasound and during this time he completed his MSc in chest and abdominal image interpretation (reporting) and also his postgraduate certificate in musculoskeletal ultrasound back at the University of Leeds. After being a visiting and associate lecturer for a number of years, in 2012 he took up an academic post as a lecturer, and subsequently Senior Lecturer, at Sheffield Hallam University and became a fellow of the Higher Education Academy in 2014. In 2018 he helped establish the UK's first clinical academy for reporting radiographers.
