Job Description:
ACN2 scale for pre-CCT trainees (£43,504 - £64,461),GPsalaries dependent upon career stage.
College of Medicine & Veterinary Medicine
Fixed-term, full-time (40 hours per week)
6 August 2025 until CCT date + 6 months, or 2 years post-PhD (as appropriate)
Up to 5 posts available
We are seeking to recruit up to five outstanding health professionals for an August 2025 start.
The opportunity:
Joining the prestigious ECAT-i programme (Edinburgh Clinical Academic Track – inclusive) involves undertaking a Wellcome PhD for Health Professionals in a world-leading research centre at the University of Edinburgh, with combined clinical training and practice in association with NHS Education for Scotland (NES) and NHS Lothian.
Vacancies are open to:
* Trainees in all GMC-recognised medical and surgical specialties
* Primary care practitioners
* Candidates from across the UK
In order to maximise flexibility for individual trainees, two types of post are available: ECAT Clinical Lectureships(with combined clinical training or experience; Wellcome Trust PhD for Health Professionals; and mentorship) and ECAT PhD Fellowships (with Wellcome Trust PhD for Health Professionals and mentorship). Before beginning the 3-year PhD project, funding is provided for a preparatory period when selection of supervisors and planning of the PhD project are optimised with the support of the ECAT directors – 12 months for the former, 3 months for the latter (although this could be open to negotiation depending on personal circumstances).
Your skills and attributes for success:
* You must be able to demonstrate a commitment to a research career and should have a track record appropriate to your career stage in basic, translational or clinical research
* You must have (or obtain by the start date of the post) a specialty training position with a National Training Number (NTN) in your chosen discipline in the UK (if you are a GP it is anticipated that you will join the programme post-CCT)
* You must be GMC registered and must be practicing clinically in the UK
* You must have relevant clinical experience in your chosen specialty
* You must be eligible for higher specialist clinical training
Non-UK citizens are welcome to apply, but you must be suitable for sponsorship under a Skilled Worker visa. If you already have the right to live and work in the UK, you may be eligible for a 'home' PhD fee status. Otherwise the programme will only cover the cost of ‘home’ postgraduate tuition fees and you must cover the balance between ‘home’ and ‘international/EU’ fees.
Protecting Vulnerable Groups (PVG) check required.
Interviews will be held in person in Edinburgh 4 & 5 December 2024.
