We are offering a highly attractive fixed-term Clinical Teaching Fellow post from 06/08//26 – 05/08/2027.

This post will offer unique training opportunities for the successful candidate to be involved in the development and delivery of the NHS GG&C simulation and skills-based teaching programme for undergraduate and postgraduate trainees. This may include for example ALS, simulation-based teaching (Medical Emergencies, clinical procedural skills and Recognition and Management of the Sick Patient) and involvement with the foundation programme curriculum teaching, both on hospital sites and at general training days.

Post holders will also contribute to case-based learning sessions at the University of Glasgow, along with OSCE development and examination. Post holders will work as part of a team of NHS GG&C Clinical Teaching Fellows; though will be attached primarily to one hospital base.

Clinical Teaching Fellows will attend regular group meetings to review educational outcomes, provide peer support and develop on-going educational activity. Additional responsibilities and involvement in departmental research will be expected as outlined by the Director of Medical Education and post supervisors, along with contributions to medical education conferences.

The post-holders will be supported to undertake personal study in the field of Medical Education, dependent on previous educational qualification and, in particular, supported to complete a Post Graduate Certificate in Medical Education during their year of attachment.

Paid time during working hours is provided to enable this (max.1 session). Additional responsibilities and involvement in departmental research will be expected as outlined by the Director of Medical Education or post supervisors. Banding will be at 1B with participation in the resident on call psychiatric rota for mental health inpatient sites.

Post-holders are expected to maintain and develop their clinical skills through a weekly clinical session (duties for which will be arranged by local negotiation, dependent on the previous experience of the trainee / their desired clinical development). The post holders are expected to comply with formal supervisory and assessment processes in regard to both their clinical and teaching activities. Although particularly suitable for trainees holding a NTN as an Out of Programme Experience, consideration will be given to those who would wish a LAS contract instead.

Interested?
