The paediatric department is looking to recruit one Senior Clinical Teaching Fellow to join their department on a fixed-term basis for 12 months to commence in 2nd September 2026  - 31st August 2027 only.

This post will offer opportunities for candidates to gain practical experience in delivering teaching sessions and learn the latest evidence-based medical education practices.

The Clinical Teaching Fellow post is based at Morriston Hospital. Duties will involve the delivery and planning of undergraduate education.

### Main duties of the job

The candidate will benefit from access to resources and support from the medical school and will be encouraged to undertake a formal postgraduate qualification in medical education, for which courses are offered by Swansea University. Study leave will be readily granted for this activity.
