Job description

We are seeking to appoint Clinical Teaching Fellows (CTFs) to support the on-going delivery of the graduate entry MBChB programme within the Three Counties Medical School (TCMS) at the University of Worcester. The School’s MBChB curriculum is centred around problem-based learning (PBL), active applied learning (e.g. simulation), with an emphasis on early patient contact and community-orientated clinical placements. Founded with the aim of widening access to careers in medicine and retaining graduates in the local area, this is an exciting opportunity to be part of the team, which opened to students in September 2023.

Applications are invited for Clinical Teaching Fellows at 0.6 FTE (3 days per week - Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday) in Anatomy, Physiology and Clinical Skills. These are career development posts at FY2/ST level to facilitate the learning of the next generation of doctors. You will be involved in developing and delivering active learning sessions in the practical application of anatomy, physiology and clinical skills primarily in Phase 1 (Years 1&am;2). You will receive training from a team of enthusiastic clinical educators and will have opportunities for professional development, including support with gaining a teaching qualification.

Applicants will have a keen interest in medical education and training. Applicants must be registered with the GMC and have a minimum of 2 years clinical experience after graduation from medical school. The Medical School has close relations with local NHS primary and secondary care providers, and we can support you in seeking clinical opportunities alongside academic commitments.

The posts are based at the Severn campus. They will be fixed term appointments for 12 months. Subject to satisfactory performance, it may be possible to extend these for a second 12-month period.

Informal enquiries should be addressed to Dr Leo Donnelly ([e-mail]), Lead for Anatomy.

What's in it for you:

• Salary range of £48,309 to £56,763 per annum pro rata

• 47 days of leave per year (inclusive of bank holidays and University closure days) pro rata

• Opportunity to remain in the NHS Pension Scheme for this appointment (applicants must also maintain some clinical work)

• Wellbeing advice and support through our Employee Assistance Programme

• In-house training and development support

• A friendly, inclusive and supportive culture and work environment
