Job Summary
The School of Pharmacy, Applied Sciences and Public Health at RGU is looking to appoint a Lecturer in Clinical Practice to support the delivery of pharmacy courses at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels. This is a fixed term maternity cover post, and the role is suitable for applicants with a wide range of clinical backgrounds, including nursing or medical as well as pharmacy.
This role is an exciting opportunity for applicants who wish to be at the forefront of the fast paced and evolving landscape of pharmacy education. We already have a highly successful course portfolio: the undergraduate Master of Pharmacy (MPharm) course and postgraduate degrees in Clinical Pharmacy Practice and Advanced Pharmacy Practice, along with the Independent Prescribing course and the new BSc (Hons) Clinical Practice for Pharmacy Technicians. We are currently involved in the delivery of the MPharm course and postgraduate course portfolio in response to the new GPhC education and training standards.
You will be passionate about enhancing the student experience and committed to integrating practice into academia. Teaching is delivered both on-campus and online and you will be expected to take the lead on developing and delivering content for students. You will be expected to be able to work flexibly and responsively with regards to team and workload requirements and show a commitment to engage in scholarly activity, for personal and professional development.
Although advertised as a full-time post, in keeping with RGU's commitment to work/life balance we will consider applicants from a healthcare background who would be interested in retaining a commitment to real life practice. This may include for example secondments, shared posts, and part-time working. We would be very interested in discussing innovative models for this role and working with external partners to offer flexibility.
We understand that any career move is a big decision, but particularly if you are changing direction.
