Lecturer (Teaching) in Clinical Pharmacy

About the role

We are looking for an outstanding Lecturer to contribute to the delivery of our highly successful Advanced Programmes in Pharmacy Practice and Therapeutics (AP3T) suite of courses.

This is an excellent opportunity for a practicing health professional with existing training experience to explore work in the academic sector.  

Although the intended core focus is envisaged to be in primary care, this post can focus on one or more of the delivery of the following as part of our Masters programmes in Advanced Clinical Pharmacy Practice and Clinical Pharmacy Practice:

  • Primary or Secondary Care 
  • Independent Prescribing
  • Advanced Clinical Assessment
  • Advanced / Clinical Pharmacy Practice (Masters level) 

The AP3T suite of programmes - including the recently NHS England accredited Advanced Clinical Pharmacy Practice MSc - is highly regarded and delivers high quality teaching particularly of clinical competence for pharmacists in practice.  

You will work within an experienced team to support the teaching and learning of our postgraduate students across a range of units, covering a range of face to face and online teaching activities as well as supporting assessment, evaluation and pastoral support for students.

This position is offered on a part time basis, 10.95 hours per week, fixed term for 1 year. We welcome applicants who wish to maintain a clinical / alternative commitment in their non-University hours or also those who may wish to work part-time otherwise. 

About you

We welcome eligible applicants from a range of disciplines or professions and, whilst we encourage applicants who are trained prescribers, this is not a pre-requisite. 

You will be keen to combine expert professional practice with a desire to develop others through the application of teaching and learning skills.

Our ideal candidate will:

  • Be registered with the GPhC as a pharmacist
  • Hold a degree and PhD in a relevant subject (or equivalent qualifications or experience)
  • Demonstrate high-quality teaching techniques
  • Be able to design, delivery and coordinate teaching programmes
  • Provide a stimulating learning environment
