We are seeking an exceptional and forward-thinking Clinical Professor to lead our expanding primary care research and education portfolio. This jointly funded post offers a unique opportunity to shape regional healthcare delivery and train the next generation of clinical leaders.

Regional impact is central to this post: connecting primary care organisations, NHS Trusts, academic institutions, local authorities, and community organisations. We're looking for someone who can drive joined-up, inclusive approaches and champion systems that serve communities often left behind. You will provide strategic leadership across all aspects of primary care research, including academic direction, performance management, operational delivery and compliance. You will have a proven track record of high-quality research outputs, collaborating effectively with academic, clinical and voluntary and community sector partners.
