Job description

An exciting opportunity to join the Postgraduate Medical Department of a very successful ‘young’ medical school with a strong record in facilitating clinical practitioners to engage with the education of medical students as a focus. BSMS prides itself in its clinical teaching and takes education as a ‘social science’ very seriously.

The role will support the development of clinical teachers, both regionally in the UK and internationally, and will include facilitation of Masters level postgraduate clinical students doing their PG Cert in Medical Education, as well as others pursuing a PG Dip and/or MSc in Clinical Education. Undergraduate students doing an Intercalated MSc in Medical Education are also a student cohort who will need support from the successful applicant.

There will also be the opportunity to develop a new ‘Dental Education’ module / course, so, whilst not essential, an interest in Dental Education and also innovation in teaching would be helpful.

The post is part time (up to 0.6 FTE) and support for further academic development of the successful candidate will be supported.

A postgraduate Masters degree or equivalent is preferable, since the ability to assess M level assignments and supervision of Masters students would be ideal.

Please contact Dr. Jim Price for informal enquiries: jim.price@bsms.ac.uk.
