Role Summary
Applications are invited for Non-Medical Clinical Lecturer posts. These roles are available to nurses, midwives, allied health professionals (NMAHPs) and pharmacists. The posts are for a maximum of four years. The aim of these posts is to provide time and support for early post-doctoral NMAHPs to develop their clinical academic careers, conduct preliminary research and receive support and training to enable them to be successful in submission of post-doctoral or intermediate level research fellowships.
Clinical and Research Balance
Non-Medical Clinical Lecturer posts are 50% clinical and 50% research, with the time to be taken flexibly. The posts are not limited by clinical specialty, area of health and/or care services or research focus as long as it is to the benefit of patients and/or public health.
Employment Details

The choice of academic department should be determined by their field of research and one that can provide them with the best research-active environment and mentorship to support their career goals. Funding will be directly allocated to the NHS host organisation from NHSE East of England.
