ACCF Medical Physicist Recruitment 2026

ACCF Medical Physicist Recruitment 2026: Overview

Assam Cancer Care Foundation (ACCF), a joint initiative of the Government of Assam and Tata Trusts, is hiring Medical Physicists for its cancer centres at Tinsukia, Dibrugarh and Golaghat. The foundation has been building a three-level cancer grid across Assam since 2017 so that radiotherapy and follow-up care reach patients in their own district instead of only at Guwahati.

A medical physicist is what makes a radiotherapy unit safe to switch on, and ACCF is hiring for these three centres in the same round in which it is also taking on radiation oncologists and radiotherapy technologists for Tinsukia and Golaghat. If you want to set up and run radiation planning at a district cancer centre rather than join an already-settled department, this is that kind of opening.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• Where you will work: you are posted at the ACCF cancer centre at Tinsukia, Dibrugarh or Golaghat, all in upper Assam. The foundation states plainly that it wants people who are comfortable in rural surroundings.
• Who you will serve: the centres treat everyone in their catchment district, including the poorest patients, and ACCF asks for an empathetic, helpful approach towards patients' families and caregivers.
• Scope of work: you are expected to multi-task and take up work beyond the strict boundary of the role when the centre needs it.
• What the notice leaves out: the vacancy table does not state how many posts are open or what the pay is. Check with ACCF before you apply if either matters to your decision.
• Watch out for fake offers: ACCF warns that it never asks a candidate for money of any kind and never sends job offers from free email services such as Gmail or Yahoo. Offers come directly from the foundation, even when a recruiting agency is involved.

Application Submission Notes

ACCF takes applications on its own Vacancies page, where the Medical Physicist row sits in the current-openings table with an Apply link beside it. That link opens a short online form which asks for your basic details, your willingness to relocate to the job location, and an upload of your CV as a Word or PDF file of up to 2 MB.

Keep your CV clear about the machines you have worked on and your RSO registration status, since radiation work is regulated. Use the online form rather than writing to a centre directly — the head office at Guwahati hires for every ACCF cancer centre. All the current posts in this round close together, so send a separate application for every role you qualify for. The notice mentions no application fee.
