Mid Level
Step into a rewarding chapter as an MRI Tech in New Lenox, Illinois, where your expertise will illuminate patient care through precise imaging and compassionate support. Beginning 02/16/2026, this contract invites you to spend several weeks advancing your skills in a community that blends Midwestern warmth with access to vibrant regional experiences. This role is more than a assignment—it’s a chance to shape diagnoses, influence treatment plans, and empower patients at moments when clarity and care matter most. While you’re based in Illinois, you’ll also have opportunities to work in a variety of locations across the United States, broadening your professional horizons and enriching your expertise with diverse clinical settings. This is a chance to grow not just as a technologist, but as a pivotal member of a patient-centered imaging team.
Illinois is a canvas of contrast and charm. New Lenox offers a welcoming, community-focused atmosphere with convenient access to larger metropolitan adventures in nearby Chicago, while preserving a village feel that supports work–life balance. When you’re not in the scanner, you can explore serene parks, historic towns, and regionally celebrated cuisine. The state’s natural beauty—from tranquil forest preserves to easy weekend drives—invites you to unwind and recharge between cases. Whether you’re savoring local festivals, enjoying outdoor recreation, or simply appreciating a slower pace with big Midwest horizons, you’ll find that this location provides both practical advantages for your career and enjoyable, refreshing downtime.
Role specifics and benefits come together to create a compelling pathway for ongoing professional growth. As an MRI Tech, you’ll be responsible for operating MRI equipment to obtain high-quality diagnostic images, adhering to established protocols, and ensuring patient safety and comfort throughout imaging procedures. You’ll position patients, select appropriate sequences, monitor for adverse reactions, and collaborate closely with radiologists to confirm the adequacy of images. Your attention to detail will support accurate interpretations, enabling clinicians to deliver precise diagnoses and effective treatment plans. The role also presents opportunities to expand your scope—advancing into specialized MRI techniques, neuro or musculoskeletal imaging, and quality improvement initiatives that elevate imaging standards across the team. In tandem with clinical duties, you’ll benefit from competitive compensation, including a sign-on bonus, housing assistance, and extension opportunities for contract renewals. You’ll enjoy the flexibility of weekly pay within a range of $2,356 to $2,402, reflecting your expertise and the scope of assignments, with the understanding that final compensation will be confirmed during the hiring process. The program supports your mobility by offering housing support and potential accommodations to help you transition smoothly if you choose to extend your time on assignment. You’ll also have access to ongoing professional development resources and the chance to collaborate with a dedicated network of imaging professionals committed to excellence in patient care.
Commitment to your growth goes hand in hand with the company’s values. This organization is dedicated to empowering its staff by providing clear pathways for career advancement, ongoing training, and a supportive work environment that values your contributions. You’ll be part of a culture that prioritizes patient outcomes while respecting your professional voice, encouraging questions, seeking feedback, and recognizing achievements. A robust support framework underpins every assignment, with 24/7 assistance available for traveling technologists, ensuring you never face clinical or logistical challenges alone. Whether you need clinical guidance, troubleshooting for equipment on the go, or help navigating housing and logistics, the team stands ready to assist you around the clock.
Ready to take the next step? This is your invitation to join a community that values your expertise and invests in your professional development. Embrace the chance to work in the New Lenox area while enjoying the broader opportunities to rotate through multiple U.S. locations, expanding your imaging repertoire and your professional network.
